Call me to talk about

User Experience Design

I always start my experience design projects by learning how much we know about our user. I have helped several startups and educational institutions create user friendly designs. I have also won several hackathons for my user friendly approach to interface design. You will get access to the strong research process that I use to uncover the small things that users deem important in user interface.

User Interface Design

User interface design is the design of the actual design artifacts. They are challenging to design all on their own without a user experience strategy. This is the part that faces the users so making it pretty and easy to use always helps. Basically UI is a core component of UX and if I am working on a UI project I will always ask about the UX strategy first. So, you will always get some UX consulting thrown in with UI.User interface design is the design of the actual design artifacts.

Gamification

Gamification is the process of applying game mechanics to a process like marketing, sales or learning. This does not mean that you are playing a game, all it means is that you will experience the same level of engagement that you experience while playing a game. It requires an indepth analysis of the business strategy, user motivation and finals goals. I have several years of experience in gamifying education that I use to design gamification systems.

As the father of three teenagers I became interested in gaming simulations for educational purposes and found what I was looking for in the game SimVenture. I arranged for Zef, the North American distributor for SimVenture, to be a keynote speaker at the 2012 BESAC conference discussing educational theory and gaming and his ability to distill complex theory into a dynamic and engaging fifteen minute presentation was truly impressive. Conference attendees were still talking about the presentation the next day.

It was during my M.Des Studies at NIFT i first met him. He took a module where we were asked to make a virtual shop for the Internet game the The 2nd life. I can never forget that module for the first time for a designing project we did drama, video filming, debate etc, and came up with a very nice presentation. And Sir took the winning group us to CCD for a coffee.

I have taken on the role of UKIERI project manager from Huzefa since his departure from our University in 2009. Huzefa was instrumental in obtaining this prestigious award. The award has given us an opportunity to collaborate with the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT), New Delhi in India. Huzefa structured the project with a strong vision; building creatively on the strengths of the School of Design and NIFT. He was entrepreneurial in his project management approach and showed in-depth understanding in structuring academic proposals.

He has also helped us in setting up a CRM system which will help manage our leads and prospects. He independently runs marketing campaigns and recruits sales agents and trainers all over North America.

Huzefa (Zef) was a diligent and hard working colleague on the MBA program. He brought fantastic energy, cultural insight in to the Indian consumer experience which allowed our group to get a global feel for the MBA. I can recall getting some excellent marks by comparing and contrasting the UK economy with that of India. He is a great motivator, leader and team player, who shows promise for the future.
