At CACI, I supported U.S. Navy training initiatives by designing user-centered interfaces and 3D experiences for complex technical systems. My work focused on improving usability, clarity, and training effectiveness for sailors operating in high-stakes, real-world environments. This included designing interfaces for interactive simulations, instructional tools, and data-driven training workflows used across web-based and real-time 3D platforms.
Training applications were being built without dedicated UX support, resulting in developer-led interfaces that lacked consistency, usability, and user-centered design.
Stepped in as the sole UI/UX designer, leading product and UX design alongside 3D production to establish research-backed workflows, design systems, and high-fidelity interfaces.
50+ 3D models and end-to-end UI/UX deliverables shipped, improving usability, visual consistency, and design-to-development handoff across Navy training programs.
Conducted UX discovery to understand user needs, workflows, and system constraints, translating insights into low-fidelity wireframes that defined information architecture, interaction patterns, and core user flows prior to visual design and development.
Established accessible color styles and a clear typographic hierarchy to support dense technical content, status-driven interfaces, and long-duration training use. Styles were tokenized to ensure consistency and scalability across applications.
Delivered production-ready, high-fidelity UI designs aligned with real-world training workflows, accessibility requirements, and system constraints, ensuring clarity and consistency across complex, multi-state interfaces.
Built interactive prototypes to validate user flows, interaction patterns, and task sequencing, enabling early feedback from stakeholders and reducing ambiguity prior to development.
Prepared developer-ready UI artifacts in Figma, including component definitions, interaction states, layout specifications, and annotations, enabling clear handoff and efficient implementation by engineering teams.
Established UX ownership for Navy training applications, delivering production-ready UI, 3D assets, and design systems that improved consistency, usability, and cross-team collaboration.
