■ Build Trust - Create a consistent, modern, and functional experience throughout the entire platform.
■ Build Relationships - Increase engagement by providing educational and user-driven content.

Project Highlights
Project Highlights
By working closely with strategy and UX, we were able to create a consistent, intuitive, and seamless digital experience to reduce call activity and increase customer satisfaction.
Our UI foundation was based on the Atomic Design Methodology — Instead of creating pages, we created systems that were scalable across all digital platforms. I helped the team define the rules and guidelines for what then became part of the global process. While working on a system helped us internally, it also had a tremendous impact on how we communicated with development. By simplifying the approach, we were able to dissect every aspect of the design and also create a common language.
