As the designer for a fintech startup aimed at helping individuals and families with low socioeconomic status understand money better, I proposed and implemented a solution that was focused around making and achieving financial wellness easy and accessible.

The user-centric approach, from onboarding to gamified goal-setting adventures, resulted in a remarkable 3% increase in user adoption rates. This collaborative effort earned our app 5-star ratings on both Apple Store and Google Play.

Outside the app, developing a design system not only improved team communication but also increased design efficiency by 10%. This project isn't just about cool designs; it's proof that design can make a big difference in helping everyone make positive changes in their relationship with money.
