User Experience Designer

Nov 2023 - Jan 2024

For my Master's project, I collaborated with Sainsbury's to improve the online grocery shopping experience, focusing on substitution—a key challenge for the retailer. The project spanned from conducting in-depth research to outlining design limitations and future strategies. We began by analysing the online order packing process through secondary research and then moved on to primary research to uncover user pain points. These insights guided the development of initial prototypes, which we tested iteratively to refine the solution. Ultimately, we delivered a comprehensive concept, identified its constraints, and proposed actionable next steps to enhance the shopping experience.
