What I Changed

To rebuild trust, I focused on clarity:
Writing clear page summaries to give users context at a glance
Replacing abstract labels with terms users actually use in their workflow
Grouping content into collapsible sections to reduce visual noise
Structuring each page around user goals, not internal silos

Every decision aimed to reduce friction and increase trust.

What I Learned

What I Learned

What I Learned

Stakeholders don’t need convincing they need proof
Early on, I had to explain what UX research was. But once we showed real user data, support grew fast. Now I lead with evidence, not theory.

UX metrics make insights actionable
UserZoom helped me connect observations to real metrics. I’m now more confident in running tests that inform business decisions, not just design.

Internal jargon breaks usability
Terms like “TRIO” made sense to the team but not to users. Now I test labels and headings with real people before assuming they’re clear.
