Derek Stein

As a User Experience Designer with over three years of experience, I specialize in crafting human-centered products across various domains, including AI and esports. My background in behavioral science informs my design approach, allowing me to create intuitive and inclusive experiences that resonate with users. I am passionate about leveraging data-driven insights and collaborating with cross-functional teams to enhance user satisfaction.

In my recent role at Reality AI Lab, I conducted user interviews and usability tests for a machine-learning assistant, significantly improving accuracy by 20%. My work involved designing low-to-high fidelity wireframes and clickable prototypes in Figma, which streamlined the design handoff process. Additionally, my experience at World Champion Fantasy allowed me to rebuild the UI for an esports streaming platform, enhancing user engagement through mobile-first, responsive layouts.

My academic achievements, including a Master’s degree in Psychology with the highest distinction, complement my practical experience. I am dedicated to continuous learning and applying psychological principles to improve user experiences. I look forward to bringing my expertise in UX design and research to new challenges.
