ITERATIVE APPROACH

Approach & Methodology

As a service designer, I take a highly collaborative and iterative approach to my work. I start by immersing myself in the problem space, using a mix of research methods like interviews, observations, and co-design workshops to understand the needs, pain points, and aspirations of all stakeholders.

Based on these insights, I work with cross-functional teams to rapidly ideate, prototype, and test potential service solutions. My designs are always grounded in user needs and rigorously validated through continuous feedback and iteration.
