Hello,
I'm Shinu Manuel
A seasoned UI/UX designerwith 11+ years of industry experience, specializing in creating intuitive and visually captivating user experiences.Career Story
My career in the design industry has been dynamic and multifaceted, beginning as a .Net developer where I gained a deep understanding of technical aspects and the importance of seamless integration between design and development. This foundation provided me with a holistic perspective that I carry with me in my current role as a UX/UI designer
I joined EY in January 2013, starting as a document specialist. Over the years, I progressed through various roles, transitioning to graphic designer, HTML developer, UI designer, and ultimately discovering my passion for UX design. These diverse experiences have equipped me with a comprehensive skill set and a unique perspective, enabling me to approach design challenges from multiple angles.
In February 2024, I transitioned to VRIZE as Lead UX Designer. At VRIZE, my responsibilities encompass a wide range of UX design and leadership tasks. I focus on user research and data analysis, competitive analysis, creating personas, user flows and journey maps, information architecture, wireframes and prototypes, and visual design. Additionally, my role includes leadership and team management, strategy and planning, project planning, stakeholder management, and cross-functional collaboration.
My design philosophy revolves around understanding the needs and desires of users to craft seamless and engaging experiences. With a user-centered mindset, I thrive on solving complex problems and creating intuitive, engaging, and visually appealing interfaces. I am driven to push boundaries and elevate user experiences to new heights. I am passionate about staying up-to-date with the latest design trends and emerging technologies. I believe in the power of continuous learning and constantly seek opportunities to expand my skills and knowledge.
As I move forward in my career, I eagerly anticipate tackling fresh challenges and discovering new opportunities. If you're looking for a proficient UX/UI designer capable of delivering exceptional user experiences and offering strategic leadership, I would Ae delighted to connect with you and explore how I can contribute to your projects.
