Hi! I'm Amy Schuck.

I'm a User Experience designer based near Charleston, SC.

Outside of work, I'm an amateur musician, gamer, and endurance runner.

Work

As a UX Designer, I'm experienced in working with cross-functional teammates (often not familiar with UX) from problem definition through handoff. I'm passionate about research-driven design, simplifying complex flows, and workshopping.

I carry the lens of UX to my hobbies. I love advocating for the people I care about and creating quality experiences for them. In my personal endeavors, I'm always trying to find my full potential.

Musician President, Summerville Orchestra

I was elected Musician President of Summerville Orchestra in 2023. I approached my role from a UX lens— how might we make the musician experience the best that it can be? With that framing in mind, I led my team of 4 Musician's Board members to establish a process for regularly gathering musician feedback and advocating for meaningful improvements.

Guild leader and Discord community manager

I joined the Heathen Horde gaming community in 2019 as part of their guild in Elder Scrolls Online. Since then, I've helped the community grow from a small group of strangers into a close-knit core spanning multiple games. I founded and led the Lost Ark chapter, organized an in-person retreat, created a visual identity, and actively gathered feedback from members in order to improve the community.

Presentation at National Flute Convention 2019

As an Amateur Resources committee member of the National Flute Association, I proposed that since amateurs flutists work professionally in other fields, we can use our experience to help aspiring and professional flutists. At the 2019 annual convention, I gave a 30 minute presentation on how to get yourself online, with the goal of helping flutists get their studio websites, portfolios, flute choir sites, or businesses off the ground.
