My name is Alexandra Krogman, but you can call me Ali. I am a UX professional with hands-on experience in UI design, content strategy, and user research.
In other words, I’m passionate about every pixel, every word, and every question.

📰 Stanford Report

📚 Published
I began my career at the University of Illinois, diving deep into user interviews and usability testing to improve library tools and services. I’m proud to say that my published research has advanced the scholarly conversation on how libraries can support students and faculty in the dynamic, ever-changing research landscape.
I bring over six years of experience as a UX designer at Stanford, where I had the opportunity to work with clients across the university on several high-profile products.
These projects refined my approach to solving complex design challenges and provided me with extensive experience working within cross-functional teams. Ultimately, they’ve shaped me into a versatile designer, able to collaborate effectively with people across a variety of roles and disciplines.
I’m excited to share some of that work with you here. Let’s get into it!

Stanford Libraries: Content ROT
After a comprehensive audit of the Stanford Libraries website, I spearheaded a project to tackle outdated and redundant content. I identified over 5,000 outdated pages and created a basis for ongoing content maintenance, enhancing the site’s relevance and establishing content governance protocols.
