Hello, I'm Iva (pronounced EE-v uh). As you probably know by now, I work in the field of User Experience (UX) design and I am very passionate about what I do. Research and design have always been my greatest professional interests and I feel fortunate that I was able to find a carrier that utilizes both on daily basis. Outside of work, I enjoy the outdoors (biking mostly), and spending time with my husband, our son, and our two rescue dogs in the Washington DC Metro area.
Google's AYI Voice UI Kit
I've been very excited about the future of Voice Interfaces, but have never had the opportunity to work on one. I believe that Voice UI's can help us create fluid, efficient experiences for customers and I wanted to understand how they work so that I better leverage what is possible. Luckily, we live in a time where if you want to learn about something, all you have to do is "google" it. This is how I ended up with Google's voice kit.
Here are some of the technologies I worked with, and am still exploring, through the voice kit :
Raspberry Pi
Python
Etcher.io
Google Assistant API
Google Cloud Platform
