I usually start by acting like I am a curious, slightly skeptical user. First I go through the intended flow to see whether it works smoothly, then I deliberately push the edges like trying out unusual combinations, fast switching between features, or anything that feels slightly unintuitive. While I’m testing, I take structured notes on what I notice , what feels confusing, what breaks and where my attention drifts

In a recent project for my university coursework, my group was building a tool that required users to input and sort through a lot of information. During testing, I noticed that although everything “worked,” the way options were labelled and grouped made the experience feel overwhelming and clunky. I documented where I hesitated, which labels were ambiguous, and suggested a reorganised layout with clearer categories and more intuitive wording. After we implemented those changes, people who tested it afterwards completed the same tasks faster and reported feeling “less lost” and more in control.

I don't play or study music currently. In the past, I have been trained in Piano but have lost practice. Currently, I like to listen to a wide range of songs and curate playlists on Spotify
