About Me

Vanesa Cores — UX/UI Designer | Accessibility & Product Design

As a UX/UI Designer with over 5 years of experience, I create inclusive and accessible digital experiences that help people connect through thoughtful, user-centered design. My work spans across government, enterprise, and tourism — blending research, strategy, and accessibility to deliver intuitive, compliant, and visually cohesive products.

I’ve collaborated on projects ranging from large-scale government platforms to enterprise tools and global tourism websites, always with a focus on usability, accessibility (WCAG 2.1), and design systems. Working in cross-functional Agile teams has strengthened my ability to balance user needs, technical feasibility, and business goals — ensuring each product not only works beautifully but works for everyone.

I’m passionate about accessibility and human-centered design, and I love collaborating with teams to create meaningful, measurable impact through design. I also integrate AI tools into my workflow — using platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google Gemini, Comet, and Whisk to enhance research, ideation, content creation, and design efficiency.

Some key highlights of my career so far include:
• Designing accessible digital platforms for the Australian Government, ensuring WCAG compliance and usability for diverse audiences.

• Conducting UX/UI audits and leading redesigns for Sydney.com and VisitNSW.com, improving engagement and design consistency.

• Delivering UI designs for Qantas Insurance and NIB Health Funds, maintaining brand alignment and smooth developer handoff.

• Enhancing SimPRO’s mobile and web applications, optimizing on-the-go workflows for enterprise users.

• Leading UX research and strategy projects for PwC, supporting large-scale digital transformation initiatives.
