Welcome! I am Michele Keyes

As a passionate and experienced UX designer, I am dedicated to crafting exceptional digital and real-world experiences that delight users and drive business growth. With a deep understanding of human behavior and a keen eye for detail, I specialize in creating intuitive and visually appealing user interfaces that engage and empower users.

My design process is centered on empathy and user-centricity. I believe in understanding the needs, motivations, and pain points of users to deliver seamless experiences that exceed their expectations. By leveraging user research techniques such as interviews, surveys, and usability testing, I gain valuable insights that inform my design decisions, ensuring that every interaction is intuitive, efficient, and enjoyable.

I am well-versed in industry-standard design tools such as Sketch, Adobe XD, and Figma, and strive to be updated with emerging trends and technologies to deliver cutting-edge solutions. I believe in the iterative design approach, embracing feedback and continuously refining designs to achieve the best possible outcome.

Collaboration and accessibility are at the heart of my work. I thrive in multidisciplinary teams when actively engaging with stakeholders, developers, and product managers to foster a shared understanding of the design vision. I am adept at translating complex concepts into simple and elegant solutions, effectively communicating design rationale, and guiding teams toward achieving a cohesive user experience.

Outside of work, I foster dogs and puppies through Austin Animal Center and Classic Canines. I also enjoy crafting, SUP, practicing circus arts, and attending live music shows with my husband.
