Brought in late in the planning process, I worked on two UI systems, translating complex UX flows into intuitive interfaces that guided users through the experiences seamlessly. Collaborating with the experience, design, and development teams, I helped transform complex technologies into approachable interactions through clear visual systems and user-focused design. My role focused on creating interfaces that balanced usability, storytelling, and technical clarity, ensuring each experience felt engaging while remaining easy for visitors to understand and navigate.
