I don’t believe in a cookie-cutter approach to every project, or that if you simply go through a rote process, a great experience will be spit out at the end. Rather, it’s important to take a careful look at each unique situation and prescribe only the methodologies that will deliver the most value.
I’ve honed my own approach to time-tested UX methodologies, through a combination of experience, education and networking.
Tools I use include:
- Figma 
- Axure 
- Sketch 
- Mural 
- Optimal Workshop 
- User Interviews 
- User Testing 
- Maze 
- Dovetail 
- Condens 
- InVision 
…and a variety of others that I employ depending on the project.
Methodologies I use include:
- User & stakeholder interviews 
- Contextual inquiry 
- Workshops 
- Competitor/comparator reviews 
- Heuristic review 
- Research synthesis and reports 
- Personas & archetypes 
- Jobs to be done 
- Journey mapping 
- Card sorting / tree testing 
- Information architecture 
- Sitemaps 
- Wireframes 
- Clickable prototypes 
- Usability testing
