Current UX Projects
Current
MWC Industry Experience Creating an experience for Mobile World Congress. The majority of attendees at MWC are from the mobile industry - primarily operators and manufacturers. Page is a long, scrolling, parallax experience that tells the story of the products we offer, as well as how to engage in partnership opportunities with Mozilla. Experience is also fully responsive, focusing on 2 primary breakpoints for tablet and mobile and using a more fluid approach within. (ie: http://goldilocksapproach.com/)
Firefox Onboarding Funnel Addresses the user's path from searching for a Firefox product, through downloading, installation, and continued use. Conversion, Retention, Education.

Testing complete, new design pushed week of Feb 4, 2013 with an 11% overall conversion rate (22% in IE8 alone), and many speed improvements (time to be able to interact: 46% decrease, time to load page content: 71% decrease, time to execute JavaScript: 35% decrease)

Improve how information is served to users here (ie: more visual, related to product release schedule). How can we make product updates more apparent and increase overall value and interaction of this page.
