““AI’s real power isn’t replacing human decisions—it’s removing the bottlenecks that slow down human choice-making. ”
This approach defines my UX.

Katy Neale
I’m a Senior UX Designer specializing in mission-critical defense systems and AI-enabled modernization. I’ve supported TRANSCOM-aligned mission planning workflows through CAMPS Inc. 1 for the 618th Air Mobility Command—where UX directly impacts operational outcomes, trust, and readiness.
Today, I focus on human-centered AI design for government missions: decision-support workflows, agentic systems with oversight, and information architecture that improves retrieval accuracy and usability.
What I Bring:
• Defense Domain + Ops Reality — Deep understanding of constraints, approvals, and stakeholder complexity in military environments
• Legacy → Modernization — End-to-end workflow redesign under operational and technical constraints
• AI UX + Trust — Human-in-the-loop patterns, progressive disclosure, confidence signaling, override/escalation paths
• IA for AI Enablement — Terminology alignment, structured labeling, and findability improvements to support retrieval + decision support
• Cross-Functional Leadership — Translate between mission users, engineering, and leadership; drive clarity where requirements are incomplete
