Senior UX Designer

GlobalLogic

I was excited to work with our partner, The Economist as a part of the Mobile & Innovation team. In 4 years, I have designed multiple publicly released products, including:

  • The Economist app The main mobile application for the magazine Economist, that substitute obsolete app. It offered a daily curation of top-tier journalism and the complete weekly edition of the newspaper.

I was part of the team from the initial phase to successful delivery. My role involved tasks such as competitor analysis, crafting the entire app from initial wireframes to final UI, building prototypes, and conducting user testing sessions alongside a London-based product researcher. Our goal was to create a remarkable experience catering to both new and existing subscribers, ensuring easy access to the magazine's extensive content. The iOS app received 2 times App of the day award at Apple App Store.

  • Economist Films app Economist Group asked us to create a Films application for watching documentary series and daily news videos on different devices. Films make short, mind-stretching documentaries that examine big global themes. My involvement spanned the project's initiation through successful delivery. I conducted initial research, devised comprehensive UX flows, and crafted the UI. Beyond standard platforms (mobile and tablet), I designed the app also for Xbox, Android TV, Smart TVs & Roku.

  • Economist Espresso app Espresso is an application for daily news updates delivered to a smartphone or inbox before breakfast. It tells what’s on the global agenda in the coming day, what to look out for in business, finance, and politics, and most importantly, what to make of it. My role on the project was UX and UI designer. I enhanced the initial mobile design, created a new experience for smartwatches, and designed the whole tablet experience.

The application received several awards, for example: Winner of the Google Play 2016 Awards in the category Made in GB.
