Case Studies
Here are some of my past projects that are relevant to demonstrate how I addressed similar challenges as the ones your organization is facing:
Campus TV: 2U Apple TV app
Increased student engagement by designing a platform-specific experience for completing coursework on Apple TV.
This project demonstrates my ability to design for a specific platform (similar to mobile focus needed at Upstart) and conduct iterative usability testing to optimize user experiences. I led multiple rounds of testing with real users, identifying and solving friction points in the user journey.
Economist Material Design
Redesigned The Economist app with Google’s Material Design, improving user experience and app store ratings.
This case study showcases my experience with implementing design systems (Material Design) for mobile platforms. I managed a team of UX/visual designers while maintaining consistency through a UI kit and establishing processes for collaboration with distributed teams—exactly what you need for your mobile product vision at Upstart.
NYC DOE Design System
Created a cross-platform design system for NYC’s Department of Education, replacing legacy interfaces with modern, consistent UX.
This project directly relates to your need for a mobile-first product experience vision that unifies customer journeys. I led the creation of a comprehensive design system that worked across iOS, Android, and web platforms, ensuring consistency while respecting platform-specific conventions and accessibility requirements.
