Michelle Linder
When it comes to the upgrades of old technologies
and/or the development of new, Michelle offers the
right combination of computer science, creativity and
functionality within best practices esthetic designs. Her
knowledge doesn’t come from a few certification courses or
trial and error. It comes from college degrees and years of
practical experience. Because in the end, it’s not just about
presenting mock-ups and prototypes. It’s about making logical sense
when it’s explained why one design works better than another and
being able to back up those decisions with both qualitative and
quantitative research data. It’s about getting someone on your
team that keeps you informed while delivering what the
Stakeholder wants, the end-users will use, while making
sure your coders and engineers have what
they need so they can deliver within their
time and budget restraints.

Michelle started out studying commercial illustration and Graphics (both analogue and computer graphics with Photoshop and Illustrator) from the Academy of Arts University of San Francisco. In addition, she gained extensive knowledge in the areas of composition (the study of controlling eye movement on a page), color theory and design. This led to interests and employment opportunities in Graphic Design, as well as make-up and special effects for film and stage. (A medium which required extensive knowledge in sculpture, casting, prosthetics, working with poly-resins, poly-foams and silicone, as well as some animatronics.) She would have stayed in make-up, but computer animation began to replace many different types of special effects. As a result of less work in her field, Michelle went back to school, the San Francisco Art Institute, where she studied Digital Media and Filmmaking to receive her Bachelors of Fine Art (BFA). Later she studied Advanced Digital Applications with Computer Generated Images (digital special effects for films) from New York University. This path lead to moving to Los Angeles and seeking a career as a writer and producer of independent films. She also worked in editing and directing. One of her last positions was at a small movie studio where she designed feature film posters and DVD covers and worked as a story editor on feature film screenplays. She’s written several screenplays and books and has placed in many screenplay competitions including, but not limited to, The Nicholl’s Fellowship and Scriptapalooza at the Sundance Film Festival. Ms. Linder has seen 3 of her screenplays produced.
And since the Independent Film Industry doesn’t pay very well, to supplement her income, she worked in clothing design, making jewelry and the creation of hand-made detailed mosaics on shoes using Swarovski crystals. She also sold some of her paintings in galleries in Beverly Hills and Los Angles (oil on canvas and mixed medium).

​
Michelle Linder is part of four generations of artists in her family. Her grandfather worked in sculpture with bronze, marble and wood. Her mother is a painter of abstract art and decorative designs for children. Her sister is a published author and a painter, and her nephew creates 2D and 3D computer generated animation.
In 2009, when the economy challenged most industries, especially in film and entertainment, Ms. Linder decided to add to her skills by seeking education in a field that was more recession proof. As such, she looked into computer programming and web development. Wanting to make sure she had skills that would set herself apart from her competition in the job market, she moved to Atlanta, Georgia in August of 2010 and began her goal to attend the Georgia Institute of Technology and learn from the best.
To Michelle, moving towards UX and UI was just another venue to approach with the same imagination and creativity as any other medium. It just required a stronger technical aspect, which she would eventually learn. Georgia Tech afforded a strong foundation in Computer Science and Research Methodologies. Furthermore, she understands marketing, particularly in how to understand the different demographic groups; skills acquired in the entertainment industry and easily translated to R&D into new technology.
Michelle Linder attended the Georgia Institute of Technology where she was afforded the opportunity to take her artistic and creative background and apply them to Science, Technology and Research within the fields of Computer Science.
With a Bachelors of Fine Art (BFA) from one of the best art schools in the United States, the San Francisco Art Institute, and a Masters of Science (MS) from one of the top technology schools in the world, Georgia Tech, Ms. Linder is now using her talents and skills to come up with concepts, new technologies and best practices in User Experience and User Interface Development.
From 2014 until now, Michelle has been working for many Fortune 500 Companies in User Experience (UX) and User Interface (UI) Research, Architecture and Design, Human-factors Engineering, Information Architecture and Interactive Design. And no matter what the circumstances, she never runs out of ideas, because of the extensive research methodologies she uses. As such, she can create conceptually staying within the parameters of your time constraints, budgets and supporting technology that is accessible to your company.

RESEARCH BACKGROUND
​
Extensive experience in systematically studying target users to collect and analyze data that helps to inform the product design process. As well as Usability Studies to make sure the finished product meets all requirements.
RESEARCH PROJECTS
​
Multimedia, Multisensory, Cross-referencing Educational Delivery System (MMCredS) is an application I designed to address and neutralize the disadvantages of the learning disabled while providing for the different learning styles. Completion of this prototype required extensive research (particularly in 508 Compliance and Accessibility), leading ethnological studies, dynamic mock-ups and managing User Experience research and testing. Presentation of the finished prototype included leading a 30-minute lecture/presentation on research findings and usability testing utilizing multimedia arrangements and the production of the abstract in the form of a 3.5 minute film I directed and edited.
Project film and sample of production and editing skills: www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHvavQfjkxg or go to YouTube and search MMCredS
3D Left-Handed Ergonomically-formed Mouse for designers and animators. Led research and completed a prototype that eliminates the need for operating a keyboard when using various design and animation programs. Prototype featured easy access button-proximity to all fingers with hand in ergonomically relaxed position with buttons in different shapes and textures for users to discriminate by touch rather than sight.
Smart Contact Lenses and Laser Glasses created for a fictional/speculative design project. Produced a mock brochure and slideshow presentation of the effectiveness of these glasses in both civilian and military action.
Interactive Television Prototype developed under Dr. Janet Murray in the Experimental Television Lab (eTV) at Georgia Tech. This project involved making the television series Justified user friendly, informative, and interactive for anyone who is or is not familiar with the show. Worked as Director of Editing; collecting footage establishing both the antagonists and protagonists in the story’s plot and editing all the snippets into a montage explaining each character’s role in the series. Also lead User Experience Testing.
The Impressionists Game was designed to teach children about the impressionist genre of Fine Art. Completed a prototype which allowed Users to passively learn about art within a virtual reality in context to one or two artists at a time. Level 1 of the prototype involved a Magritte styled eye hovering over an ocean and shooting apples at users. Players maneuver around raining men in bowler hats to reach the sky-looking area of the eye, while dodging projected apples progressing in speed and frequency. Worked within the Unity format coding in C#.
Diabetic Pump Redesign; lead a 3-person group project to make a diabetic pump more user friendly with an interface system intuitively designed. Our final prototype was a phone app where users could have easier access in keeping track of, and modifying, their insulin drip, diet, and so on. Directed the user interface design, wireframing and paper prototypes based on ethnological research and human factors engineering in both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies and user experience research and testing.
Augmented Reality (AR); Worked in the AR Lab at Georgia Tech creating an interactive game for Google Glasses and mobile devices using Javascript and the Adobe Creative Cloud programs. Conducted usability testing in a park where participants competed to collect animated objects from around them and each other.
Research (both Qualitative and Quantitative), Concentration and/or Presentations on:
-
Educational technology and Massive Open-source Online Courses (MOOCS) with the Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) best practices in multiple levels of Interactivity from Passive to Simulations.
-
W3C guidelines of accessibility and 508 Compliance, ADA and WCAG AAA Design Compliance for those using the web and apps with assistive devices such as auto-readers.
-
Effective educational delivery methods with focus on the many forms of dyslexia and autism.
-
Heuristic evaluations of government websites with a focus on the needs of the disabled, older adults and Section 508 Compliance.​​​​
