SIOUX TECHNOLOGIES
UX / UI Designer
November 2018 - March 2020
At Sioux Technologies I worked for multiple clients. For ThermoFisher
Scientific, a supplier of electron microscopes, I identified and researched UI
problems through stakeholder interviews and usability tests. From there I
developed low- and high-fidelity prototypes which were discussed with
stakeholders and users. This resulted in the execution of an updated UI design.
Tribus, a mobility solutions company, asked me to design an interface for their
new electric line busses, I made a UI design for their integrated digital
instrument cluster. By involving the client early on we came up with an
interface that stole the show at their demo release on BusWorld2019.

The Sioux automotive competence centre asked me to develop a digital

trends and usability testing I developed a UI that displayed the full potential of
the product. This led to new sales and provided me with the Tribus project.
