Meeting people, minus the awkward
A friendship and social discovery app. I designed profile creation, matching and the first-conversation experience — the moment where most social products lose their users.
The work
Designed prompts that give people something to answer instead of a blank 'about me'.
Built an icebreaker into the first message so nobody has to open cold.
Designed clear, low-friction exits — feeling trapped is what makes people delete a social app.
Files were handed over annotated and component-based, with a live walkthrough for the engineering team.

Audio-first learning, on the commute
An audio summaries app for people who want the substance of a long read in the length of a drive. I designed the full listening experience — discovery, player, queue, offline library and the subscription flow behind it.
Property search without the noise
A property marketplace connecting buyers, renters and agents. I designed the search, listing and enquiry experience for buyers, plus the listing-management side agents work in every day.
Group trips that survive the planning
A trip-planning app built around the part that actually breaks: group agreement. I designed shared itineraries, split expenses and a decision flow that stops a trip dying in a group chat.
Tell me what is not working. I will tell you honestly whether design is the right lever and what I would do in the first two weeks.
