Hi! I'm Trevor
A UX designer exploring the ‘UX universe’ for the past 12 years
Guided by high-fidelity prototyping and a strong command over data visualization, I’ve navigated the UX galaxy, creating user-centered designs.
My expertise spans accessibility, responsive design, and design systems, applied across B2B, B2C, service as well as product spaces.
Along the way, I’ve earned patents, delivered conference talks, and published white papers to illuminate new paths in UX.

Redesign of an Airline Fare Auditing Application
Conducted usability tests and contextual enquiries to identify key problems in an Airline Fare auditing platform. Based on insights from this reasearch, I redesigned the auditing experience to enable faster auditing with reduced errors.
Highlights
- Reduced turn around time by 30%
- Improved SUS scores by 35%
- Reduced errors by 12%
Redesigning Deere.com - John Deere’s Core Customer Facing Site
Reimagined the website’s experience with a goal of making it easy to find product information and buying options. I remapped the user's flow and refined various components to enable an easy and seamless experience.
Highlights
- Identified and eliminated multiple friction points in the user journey
- Created multiple components to aid users with buying decisions
- Managed a large design library consumed across the organisation
Bringing E-Commerce to Deere.com
Designed the configure and buy experience so that customers can effortlessly purchase small consumer equipment like lawn mowers from Deere.com. Empowered by multiple rounds of user testing, I simplified the configuration process so customers can confidently make purchases online.
Highlights
- Leveraged Figma variables to create a "functional" prototype for user testing
- Conducted "holistic validation" by testing with all stakeholders in the E-Commerce ecosystem e.g. dealers

Patents
System and method for measuring user experience of information visualizations
The experience of information visualisations depend on multiple qualitative, quantitative, and contextual parameters which are often unmeasurable and incomparable. This patent relates to a system and method that collects, processes, and analyzes multiple parameters to profile the visualization. This is done by considering context by computing the chart complexity, benchmarking, summarizing parameters as hedonic and pragmatic scores, plotting on a scatter chart, and labeling based on scatter chart position.

Display screen with transitional graphical user interface for a gantt chart
This is a design patent that encompasses a variation of the gantt chart that enables comparing planned vs actual data. It also ensures insights are accessible on various devices include mobiles. This design visualises planned start and end dates, actual start and end dates, delays and leads, as well as current position as compared to the larger timeline. Furthermore, it enables user to drill deeper from tasks to subtasks to better understand project progress.
