Next project
ING
For one of the largest Dutch banks I had the pleasure to be Strategy UX/UI designer while also advocating and implementing Design Thinking into the IPA portal of ING.
This new positioning and pricing portal replaces multiple deprecated systems with a future-proof web-based portal with the latest techniques. Not only are we getting rid of the old MS-Dos / Windows platform software. We designed a better user experience. We aim to make the portal the single source for trading, risk, and information for any ING employee.
