Projects
Accounting System
The Sage Intacct accounting software product spans many areas of accounting, and I worked on several modules throughout my stay. I’ve featured a user research project to better understand the end-to-end process of making a purchase through to paying the vendor using Intacct. My findings were used to flesh out personas, identify new requirements, and provide valuable insights to the project team.
In addition to this research project, I have example user stories I wrote to assist the Product Manager.
Work examples include:
Health Care Safety Incidents
Quantros offered systems for reporting safety issues in hospital settings, enabling health care organizations to identify issues and prioritize projects to reduce or eliminate repeated incidents.
I led a major redesign of the existing Safety Event application used in hospitals, beginning with eliciting requirements information from clients, account managers, end-users, and other stakeholders, then transforming the information into Epics and User Stories.
Later I designed a new safety reporting system tailored specifically for retail pharmacies and led the project to implement it. The system was adopted by Walmart and Target corporations and deployed to 7K+ locations.
Work examples include:
Stanford Research Administration
Stanford University Office of Research Administration oversees research for over $1B annually, but administrators were still tracking award recipients, terms, amounts spent, etc. on paper and mainframe. I designed the UX for a web-based system, increasing efficiency and accuracy, decreasing the average time spent negotiating and approving awards from 68 days to 41 days.
I also worked on a new process and form to more easily create financial accounts when awards are granted.
