Ria has a deep interest in quickly learning and establishing new workflows contextual to the product and its ecosystem. I got to work with Ria on developing workflows and designing VUI for an employee safety mobility solution. Her iterative and exploratory design approaches leveraging AI, along with her ownership and dependability, helped in laying a good foundation to build on. She delivered the voice experience for key features along with a future roadmap for other features informed by insights from the field.
