IE 590 Final Research Project

Dr. Richard Liu’s Structured Engineering Innovation class (IE 590) taught me how to create a structure for disruptive, innovative technology where a structure does not previously exist; my final project focused on how Nintendo’s Wii disrupted the videogame industry with a revolutionary perspective on intuitive controller design.

 

IE 486 Final Group Project

Work Analysis & Design II (IE 486) with Dr. Brandon Pitts introduced me to the importance of user experience in web and application design. For this class’s final project, I researched the usability of Amazon’s mobile application by focusing on the role of distraction in shopping behavior through cognitive walkthrough experiments and completing heuristic evaluations to boil down design flaws.
