Welcome to my experience design portfolio. I have been incredibly fortunate to work with a variety of clients in my career. My practice in user experience is just a little over 21 years. In that time frame I have seen technology evolve in a variety of industries, and I have made sure to be at the forefront of this change.
My methods involve empathy and strategy of understanding the users. Observing what the users do, focusing efforts on research, analysis, design, production, product launch, and evaluation. I ask questions, but most importantly I listen. This is my roadmap for success. Real science compliments the beautiful visuals to complete form and function. I want to make sure I have learned something while delivering great user experiences and value to products.
All logos and products belong to their respective companies. User experience, research, and designs created by Erick Moya.

Apple Vision Pro: Spatial Video Platform
Objective:
Apple Vision Pro is in its first iteration, and there is a small amount of entertainment and educational content. I wanted to create a spatial video platform for performers like comedians and music instructors.
Outcome:
Currently in the prototyping stage and collaborating with street performers, stand up comics, and music instructors to progress on the concept.
My Role:
I am creating a concept based off of research in speaking with the Apple Vision Pro owners community, music instructors, comedians, and users of a wide age range. My research is based on interest to consume entertainment, take lessons, and multi task while listening to live comedy. Engaging with the AVP audience to drive interest in a paid subscription platform for these types of genres.

To create a new way to experience art, art galleries, and learn about artists past and present.
Outcome:
This is a brainstorm work in progress design with a very basic prototype to begin the first iteration of the Apple Vision Pro experience to generate interest.
My Role:
I am creating experiences for artists who wish to present their art work in a whole new light. By researching how artists and art galleries do business with collectors, fans, and prepare for in house experiences, I have learned how to create an immersion for those in the virtual space.

Bank of America: Erica A.I. Virtual Assistant & Mobile Banking
Objective:
Bank of America is one of the largest multinational investment banks in the world. The company wanted to bring forth more depth and dimensionality to their AI banking app (Erica) to distinguish the ui for tapability, a more interactive appearance to the virtual assistant, and an updated interface to appeal to a wider audience of mobile banking users. Erica is the first virtual assistant for your mobile banking needs.
Outcome:
In creating a new 2.0 initiative, I set out to implement more of that depth and dimensionality for the new iteration. Erica is loaded with richer user interface visualizations. Data being one of the most important visual elements to the experience. I began with giving Erica a new visual personality.
It was important to present a branding and cutting edge appeal for the existing library. In this iteration I also wanted to introduce location based visuals, recognizable iconography, distinguished messaging interaction with avatars, a way to see the full visualization of data charts, bank card visualization, and a clearer way to view the data.
My Role:
I was tasked in finding a solution to giving the Erica AI an identity as recognizable as Apple’s Siri while updating a version 2.0 design language with more depth and dimensionality. While working with the leadership team I had to understand what the design direction was, what elements worked and did not work, how to make the design less jarring, and implementing modern design trends within a small space. We had 45 days to make the presentation.

User feedback and observation showed that important information and tappable elements within the design system were blending in. This made it difficult for users to intuitively figure out what was tappable. The microphone icon represented Erica, and users had to tap on the microphone to activate the virtual assistant functions. The Bank of America logo was a part of the message utterances which felt a little obtrusive. There was no personalization from the user’s perspective.
The Interface Enhancements:
Updates to the design system included a new Erica AI design identity. I changed the microphone icon, placed the Bank of America logo within a speech bubble container to activate that interaction. Next, I designed a new message utterance and placed the Bank of America avatar off to the side instead. Every user is somewhere, so I integrated the major city landmarks into the backgrounds which faded out once the interactions took place. Other changes included much improved iconography, spending graphs, cards on account, bill pay, micro interactions, and quick actions.
Thenos of Honest Install
Objective:
Honest Install is an audio visual company I had the pleasure of designing for during their CEDIA EXPO conference. A part of their product line up has been AV fixtures for the Sonos product line by Thenos. Thenos is innovative in creating hidden speaker mounting fixtures in smart homes, and they needed a way for their customers to purchase their new PlayBox during CEDIA EXPO.
Thenos wanted a website that would be a companion piece to the booth showcase. This informative and easy to use website allowed for the customer to learn about the PlayBox, understand the installation process, ask questions, and ultimately make a purchase.
Outcome:
Understanding the demographics of CEDIA EXPO, smart home technology, and Thenos as a brand was an important part of the research. I interviewed the key members of staff to better understand the industry, the technology, major brands, and UX maturity within the company. I conducted competitor analysis on a local and global level. I wanted to see how strong the competition was with their branding, marketing, and products. I also wanted to understand the type of people who would be at CEDIA EXPO.
I wanted the user experience to make an impact for these tech savvy demographics. The Thenos booth was also focused on demonstrating their products during CEDIA EXPO, and it was important to maximize their orders to measure their product launch success. Thenos wanted a strong brand representation to reflect in the mobile site experience that attendees could easily connect to, learn more about their product, and have appealing visuals of the variances for the PlayBox which would ultimately lead to purchase orders.

Schlumberger Work Order & Logistics
Objective:
To create a mobile experience for Schlumberger field techs who need to view, document, record progress, and update work orders while overcoming the technology knowledge challenges, logistics, bright days, and cumbersome work gloves which can hinder the human to computer interaction.
Outcome:
A leader in the oil and gas industry, Schlumberger’s field tech app allows repair techs to organize their tools, record their work order progress, and see a map which categorized their repair locations in order of priority. These techs could gather all the tools using the checklist within the app, and they would be in direct contact with their home base which could monitor their progress.
My Role:
I had 48 hours to solve a proof of concept design and create a full presentation for Schlumberger leadership. My task was to take the very little amount of information I had and design a solution for the common challenges faced among the SLB technicians out in the field. I had to put myself in the SLB technician’s position, understand their challenges, take note of the weather conditions, figure out communication and logistics issues, and solve for the business needs.
Making the not so connected worker with technology become comfortable and balanced with using these devices in their work flow. Once I had a good understanding of this, my thought was to create the scenarios where the mobile device would fit before, during, and after the service call. I made sure to wireframe a workflow that made sense. Upon finding what I thought was a good solution, I created a proof of concept with SLB branding to make a recognizable presentation that integrated into the Schlumberger eco system.

The Interface Challenge:
First pass of the user experience I wanted to present the information in a clear and understood layout. Perhaps at this stage a technician still had their work gloves on, maybe the typography wasn’t big enough, or the clarity wasn’t entirely there in terms of iconography. Urgency and hierarchy for service orders had to be factored in.
UX Enhancements:
Starting the experience off with the addition of Face ID and large buttons to begin the technician workday set the tone for the experience. Everything was larger within the interface to make it easier to read, navigate, and tap.
Results:
The presentation of the proof of concept not only allowed the company I represented to get the foot in the door, but the strength of the application, the story, and the amount of time I had to create won us a multi million dollar contract. This opportunity gave the company I represented the foothold to develop a suite of applications for Schlumberger, create jobs, build teams, and further their reach within the oil and gas industry.
Abeona Heads Up Display
Objective:
With the auto industry now paying attention to UX, there have been some accessories to which you can enhance your driving experience. Abeona worked with motion and voice controls that integrated with your vehicle and mobile device. Abeona is an intelligent system which will control some of your vehicle functions such as answering phone calls, routing directions, playing music, points of interests, and vehicle alerts. A simple interface needed to be displayed which was unobtrusive but easily fitting within the experience of the rest of the vehicle. It had to handle simple tasks with hand motions and voice commands.
Drive was a proof of concept for the life science industry. Bringing together the patient, physician, and the Pharma company to build a better relationship between these worlds for adherence and better patient health care.
Outcome:
To solve these real world problems we created the Drive App in order to unify and drive that adherence within the Pharma, physician and patient relationship. Drive is an application that allows the user to better adhere to their physicians instructions, improving their health and quality of life, keeping track of medications and activity tracking, as well as building that foundation between doctor and patient.

The Story:
How to take advantage of the mobile space to benefit the patient while connecting them with their physician for preventative health care. I asked a lot of questions which wrapped around understanding these user perspectives. Why was there a disconnect? What were those specific challenges for each perspective. What was the patient experience like? I wanted to better understand the story behind the patient, what happens when they leave the doctor’s office, how the doctor and patient follow up with one another, and where does the pharmaceutical company fit in?
The Journey:
The discovery process led to seeing what was currently out in the market to solve these problems users faced. Clunky systems for both patient and physician existed to no end. Patients were often asked to register through a web portal where they could see their office visits, some instructions, fill out additional forms, but nothing to really drive that adherence.
The experience was much like giving the patient more homework to do which really did not bring that connection, nor did it drive the adherence needed. So I broke it down to the fundamental elements of what was important for the patient to know about their health, and what were the common drivers between patient and doctor.
The Result:
Drive, the patient and doctor mobile phone application for better health and adherence.
The Result:
Summit, the tablet application connecting doctors and Pharma.
