Storytelling is my design superpower. I believe the solutions to problem solving in design lie in the intersection of a conscientious understanding of your target audience and carefully curated storytelling. My design playgrounds: Figma, After Effects and all things UX.

Bubble by Barclays – D&AD New Blood Winner 2023
A new mobile app designed to curb impulsive spending in those with ADHD
58% of people with ADHD find spending impulsively to be their biggest money-related barrier and are four times more likely to impulse-spend than those without the condition. Impulsive spending can significantly impact one’s everyday life, financial freedom and mental wellbeing.
Bubble is designed to help those with ADHD manage their triggers and impulsive spending habits in a fun, friendly and interactive way. Small money-centric tasks and interventions provide ‘dopamine-friendly’ alternatives to curb impulsivity and encourage the view that your money has the power to give you freedom whilst also being something delicate that should be handled with care – just like a bubble.

Research and Ideation
Both primary interviews and secondary research were used to inform Bubble. Concept user testing helped assure Bubble stayed as true to its target user as possible.
Wireframing and Design
Digital and analog wireframing iterations helped build out the UX and UI design of the app interface.
Prototyping and Animation
Figma and After Effects were used to create hi-fi mockups, prototype the application and animate the explainer pitch.
