Takeaways
Intention behind each small design decision
Pay great attention to craftsmanship and design system. Always ask myself what’s the reason to make certain design decisions.
Data Matters
A recurring question throughout the design is “What’s the use case here?” Data will help inform the design direction and help build a better user experience.
Feedback! Always
Learn to request feedback from team, cross-functional partners.
Request feedback at the right timing with a clear scope.
