User Testing & Validation   
User testing and validation are about checking if your design actually works for real users before or after launching it. It’s how you make sure you’re solving the right problems in the right way.

In product design, this involves:

• Usability testing: Watching real users try my prototype or product to see where they get confused, stuck, or frustrated.
• Feedback collection: Asking users questions or using surveys to hear what they like, don’t like, or find difficult.
• A/B testing: Trying two different versions of a design (Version A vs Version B) and seeing which one performs better.
• Analyzing behavior: Using tools like Hotjar, Google Analytics, or Mixpanel to track how users actually use the product.
• Iteration: Taking the insights I gather and improving my design before or after release.
