"People don't read."

I’ve lost count of how many times people have said this to me. And let me tell you—when you’ve poured your heart and soul into writing clear, engaging copy, that can be a pretty big bummer. But the sentiment still remains; in a world of constantly divided attention, people’s eyes tend to skim over the details. Which begs the question...

If people don't read... how do we design?

What I've learned?

It's not true.

Good UX design is about attention. It’s about letting your users focus on what they need to focus on, not pulling them in a hundred different directions. It’s not just about the content on the page, but how that plays with everything around it. The best microcopy in the world isn’t going to solve a button that’s hidden away. The most well-placed toggle isn’t going to matter if the label is confusing.

Your audience’s attention is limited.
Use it to your advantage.

That's where I come in.

Hi, I'm Nikki.

I'm a writer-turned-designer with over 10 years in tech. When I design, I'm thinking about everything on the page, but more importantly—I'm thinking about the person looking at it. I believe great UX comes from understanding what your users need and when, and eliminating the roadblocks in their way. 

Content + design = Great UX
