A bit about me

I gratuated Wizo Canada School of Design at 1996.
I began my career as a web site designer in the Israeli finance newspaper - Globes. I then shifted working with start ups Israeli companies.
From year 2000, I became freelance focusing mainly on UX. In parallel I gained lots of knowledge with developing/programming tools.

Familly

I am married and have 2 daughters (2 wonderfull girls).

Leisure

I like trekkings and I am apart of a Jazz band, playing a Selmer Alto Saxaphone.

What do I focus on?

I Plan innovative User Experience for managing:

Complex Network and Virtual Network structure
Storage resources
Virtual Machine life cycle
Complex UI infrastructure topologies
Laboratory test systems

Professional Experience

Apart from long time experience with the market, I’m always up-to-date with new products, attitudes and technologies.

The Process

Team

Working together with PMs, engineering and marketing to understand the product from all its perspectives and the target audience.

Wireframes

Building and testing different Wireframes to reach the optimal UX for the specific target audience.
The process begins with the most important stage with the most simple technology:
Paper and pencil. Following are the Mockeups, I use Balsamiq for this purpose.

Mockups

Graphic Design, Drawing high fidelity mockups.

Device responsiveness

Mobile responsiveness solution done either in client or server side.

Design Guide Line

Either in a descriptive document or as a CSS/Less file.

Front end programming

Helping the front end engineering team to build the GUI.

Time Scope for different goals

Understanding the client product is not always enough, I am aware of the company needs like investor presentation or demo in a short time. The outcomes are different and features need to be rescaled accordingly.

Last but not least...

Consistency

For a new company/product: Planning a new unified logic mechanism user experience and graphic cross over the product/s.
For an established company/product: Keeping the same company UX/UI/Look n feel guideline.

Work Relationship

Keeping a good relationship with co-workers :) I’m very friendly and easy to work with.
