Overview

In May 2018, I started out as a Senior User Experience Researcher on the Digital Customer Experience team at JP Morgan Chase. I worked primarily on the redesign of the Chase Website and Mobile app and informing the next iteration of the Manhattan Design System.

I was promoted to the Vice President of Accessibility Research and Insights role in July 2019 to ensure compliance, conformance, and governance as it related to Section 508, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act (CVAA), and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Information Architecture

One of the first projects that I worked on when I joined the firm was gathering insights on the information architecture and navigation of the Chase Website and Mobile app. In the first phase of this study, I conducted a round of interviews with 10 participants to inform a Customer Journey Map to help the team understand the context of usage of the Chase Website and Mobile app.

During the second phase of this study, I worked closely with the Product, Engineering, and Design teams to streamline the experience across 800+ pages on the Chase Website. I went on to conduct a card sort and usability study of a medium fidelity prototype with an additional 10 participants to inform the navigation and call to action buttons.

Voice of Customer Program

As the User Experience (UX) and Accessibility Research Lead, I worked closely with the Data Science team to run queries and analyze data pertaining to accessibility. We’d compile data from User Experience Research study findings, customer service logs, Net Promoter Scores (NPS), Customer Satisfaction Scores (CSAT), and social media.

Each month we published a Voice of Customer Report shared company-wide that highlighted areas of success, improvements, bug tracking, and prioritizations. Especially during the pandemic, we were able to assist vulnerable populations navigate the complex landscape that unfolded around their personal finances. We processed over 3,000+ pieces of feedback and created 20+ tickets to ensure proper remediation.
