** Due to the nature of my work and a strict non-disclosure agreement (NDA), I cannot share specific project details or proprietary information. I was only involved in the product research and did not design the product or the website.**
During my time as a UX research intern at TeddyBot, I collaborated with the company and MFA Interaction Design at SVA to gather insights on the user experience of an AI companion designed to assist older adults. My role involved conducting interviews, analyzing data, and contributing to design recommendations aimed at improving the interaction and usability of the product.
The focus was on understanding the personal needs, routines, and challenges of older adults to ensure the technology seamlessly integrates into their daily lives, supporting both users and caregivers. This project provided valuable experience in balancing empathy, user insights, and privacy concerns in product research for vulnerable populations.
