Hi! Welcome to my portfolio
My name is Katrina Peli, UX Researcher and Designer graduated with a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction at DePaul University.
With over 3 years of experience, I specialize in creating intuitive and impactful user experiences by leading the end-to-end design process—conducting user research (interviews, surveys), prototyping, usability testing, and wireframing. My work focuses on aligning user needs with business objectives, ensuring that every design decision enhances both functionality and accessibility.
I conducted UX Research to improve website accessibility for the Northern Illinois Special Recreation Association, resulting in a 20% increase in new participants.
