My Projects
TrailVault - Academic Project
As part of the Human-Centered Design and Engineering curriculum at UW, I participated in the User-Centered Design course. Collaborating within a team of four, we chose outdoor recreation, specifically hiking as our focus area, driven by our shared passion for nature and a commitment to sustainability. Through extensive research, we uncovered a lack of rental options and guidance available to novice and intermediate hikers, which posed significant barriers to participation. In response, we designed a community-based, locker-based gear-sharing system to address these challenges, promote sustainability, and make outdoor recreation more accessible and inclusive.
Furniture Repair Bank - Volunteer
This project set out to transform the Furniture Repair Bank (NGO) website by tackling key user frustrations around finding essential information. Despite having the content available, users struggled to navigate the site, leading to a flood of inquiry emails. By conducting in-depth UX research and a thoughtful redesign, we streamlined the site’s structure and presentation, delivering a clearer, more intuitive experience that significantly reduced confusion and inquiries.
Bridgewater Joy Residence
Co-designed by the world-renowned architect James Smith, our Bridgewater Joy residences offer top views of the nearby lake Michigan. Perfect for a small family, a professional couple, or anyone looking to set up a home office.
Pleasantview Gem Inn
Not just pleasant on the outside, our Pleasantview Gem Inn properties are especially popular among families. With underground parking and floor-to-ceiling windows, there's no shortage of natural light or space.
