UX/UI | Brand Design | Product Design
Local Beat:
An innovative platform revolutionizing how people discover and engage with local entertainment events. As the lead UX designer, I spearheaded the project from conception to execution, leveraging comprehensive market research, user insights, and cutting-edge design methodologies. With a meticulous approach, I crafted seamless user experiences, translating complex data into intuitive interfaces, and ensuring a cohesive journey from wireframes to high-fidelity prototypes, ultimately delivering a compelling solution that resonates with our target audience.
CineDAO:
A free browser extension that rewards $FILM tokens for streaming TV and movies right on your favorite sites like Netflix, Hulu, & Prime Video. Our community raises money by anonymously contributing the shows we’re watching to our community-owned dataset. Together, we form data unions and sell on public marketplaces. CineDAO automatically redistributes the revenue right back into the community! As the lead UX designer on this project I was responsible for successfully leading our team from ideation to development in less than 6 months.
VISION QUEST
Vision Quest is a guided self-discovery game built entirely with natural language and generative design tools. Created in just 60 hours, this project transforms a difficult conversation about purpose into an interactive, story-driven journey. Players move through mystical forests, meeting wise shamans who prompt them to reflect on their path in life. Designed to feel human, not mechanical, Vision Quest blends pixel art, AI dialogue, and dynamic storytelling into a unique experience—showcasing how emerging tools can be used thoughtfully to create meaning, not noise.
