UX Design
is not a linear process.
I ask questions to gain as much understanding as I can.
Everything starts with research.
Then I move to pen & paper. I rapidly iterate on ideas and take the best ones into a software tool. From there it is a matter of reviewing, iterating and testing until the best product rises to the top.
