[MY HIGH-LEVEL WORKFLOW]
▪ Gather existing data around user data, personas, flows, business goals
▪ Gather constraints for product and visual requirements
▪ Create master prompt variations
▪ Run multiple agents simultaneously to compare output across prompts
▪ Narrow down output or pick the best parts of certain outputs
▪ Refine output inside the AI tools and using Figma as my visual notepad
▪ Deliver as a polished coded prototype or full hand-off in Figma depending on project
[WAYS I USE AI]
▪ Meta-prompting for creating or refining prompts for multiple models
▪ Deconstructing designs or images into promotable language
▪ Creating proto-personas
▪ Identifying underlying needs
▪ Identifying extreme users / mental models, and edge cases
▪ Requesting feedback and comparing responses from different agents
▪ Compressing vast amounts of information during kickoffs
▪ Running edge case simulations
▪ Deep researching visual and interaction metaphors
▪ Moodboarding using AI-generated imagery and videos
▪ Refining key user tasks
▪ Extracting key data points from existing products
▪ Re-arrange IA based on data points and personas
▪ Exploring shader interactions
▪ Generating voice and tone guide for early stage concepting
[BUSINESS IMPACT]
▪ Saving weeks of RFP preparation time with coded prototypes, deep research
▪ Increase in positive feedback from prospective clients during RFPs
▪ Helping the UX director future-proof the design team skillset, workflow, and impact
[NEXT STEPS]
▪ Bridging the gap between Figma comps and AI-generated prototypes
▪ Finding the best way to create self-governing design systems on the fly for 0 to 1 projects
▪ Capturing ways to convert a product experience feel into visual, voice and tone, and functional parameters that can be used as prompt variations
▪ Creating my own personal library of Midjourney SREF codes
[MY PHILOSOPHY]
I treat AI tools like a guitar pedalboard.
My ideas are the signal. Each model or tool adds its own effect that's shaping, bending, or amplifying the concept.
For me, it’s not about one-shot magic, but about orchestrating and finding the unexpected.
