IOT case study
ZenSpace is an IoT Startup in Silicon Valley. Their pods were manually reserved, but bookings only successfully happened with assistance. Users were completely missing the tablet on the pod's side and reached directly for the door handle. I proposed, designed, and product-managed the implementation of the centralized kiosk. There was additional functionality that managed the lights, lock, and fan within the pods as well.
Disney case study
I had the profound privilege of working as an Innovation & Experience Designer with Walt Disney Parks & Resorts Technology. We leveraged a heavily regulated Pattern Library while being directed by specific business requirements. We designed internal applications for our fellow cast members. After ideation sessions and light ethnographic research, using Axure created complex prototypes and delivered in-depth documentation to the development teams. The solution was so effective that teams as far as California reached out to join and work with us.
