Jacie Littell

UX Designer focused on interaction and craft.

I'm interested in UX for AI, especially what happens when the content itself is generated. I like designing experiences where learning feels like discovery, and I pay attention to the moments where people get confused.

An AI-assisted tool for simplifying shopping

An AI reading tool designed to feel like a rabbit hole, not a search result.

A solo concept built to understand what UX looks like when the content is generative. The goal was to create output that makes the user want to keep reading, and interactions that never pull them out of it.

History channel redesign

A History Channel redesign focused on improving content discovery.

About me

I'm a UX designer with experience designing for AI and systems. My speculative design background suits this moment, as software becomes more personalized I'm curious about preserving ease-of-use while the ground shifts.

Before design I worked in hospitality and healthcare, which keeps me honest about how confusing moments affect real people. I'm collaborative, product-focused, and more interested in getting it right than being right.
