https://www.linkedin.com/company/exodus-io
I write UX copy for desktop, web, and mobile apps in an exciting crypto ecosystem. Created a comprehensive style guide that includes guidelines on voice, tone, word choice, components, rules of thumb, and more. This guide is referenced by team members throughout the company.

I wear other hats that require a diverse skillset. I write unique, fun release notes for our biweekly updates, create brief descriptions of new assets, and offer feedback on information architecture.

Frequent syncing and teamwork with developers, product managers, designers, customer support, and company leadership.

iHerb, LLC
https://www.linkedin.com/company/iherb
Before I joined iHerb as an employee, I was actually a customer. iHerb was my go-to source for products such as honey, crackers, and fish oil while I was living in Korea from 2010 to 2018.

I joined iHerb as the first UX writer. Here's how I tackled that challenge:
Step 1: Performed extensive audit
(interviewed internally, defined goals, identified voice, analyzed content, etc.)
Step 2: Created comprehensive style guide
Step 3: Shared findings with team and stakeholders
Step 4: Worked on unifying writers around the company
Step 5: Wrote, updated, and aligned content
Simultaneously while doing steps 1-5: Worked daily with UX designers and PMs on new products

- Totally revamped content for major future pages
- Created foundational writing for upcoming websites for separate services
- Introduced new capitalization to improve readability and match company style
- Reduced reading time so users can move to the next step more quickly
- Built foundation for the future of UX writing at iHerb

        Aaron is the type of teammate that every organization should have. He’s always down to help others whether it’s an email, short product copy, company-wide style guide, brainstorm session - you name it. 

As an open-minded collaborator, he never puts down others’ ideas and strives to understand the goals of every department that he works with. 

I have personally learned so much about clarity, usability and creating a consistent user experience from him. 

I would be glad to have him as a teammate again in the future. Thanks, Aaron!

        Aaron provided excellent microcopy for a wide range of apps and features. He handled a lot of work quickly and was able to deftly serve the needs of multiple stakeholders with competing interests. He excelled at making the regulatory text needed by our payment apps easily digestible by humans, and helped us shape the voice of many of our leading products.
