What do you do on the project?

I help design the user experience: What users see on the new displays, how they see it and how often they see it, down to the actual graphics.

How do you feel your work impacts our customers? Who will benefit?

My work communicates transit information to customers as cleanly and clearly as possible, so the information is easy for any member of the public to understand. We only have a small space to work with on the displays, so we must make it count. People of all backgrounds, languages and abilities, so need to get this information quickly at a glance.

What was your favorite part of the project?

My favorite part is working with the team and all the different CIS systems. This is such a multidisciplinary project involving many staff and people I’ve never worked with before. Being able to collaborate with so many dedicated colleagues is rewarding.

What do you like most about working at the SFMTA?

As a graphic designer, my work is always on display. Being able to see my work in public and see Muni riders engage with my work to get information that helps them with their trip is exciting and satisfying.
