PROJECTS

1. Brix - AI Talent Search

I designed an AI agent–driven recruiting system that translates hiring intent into high-confidence candidate shortlists. The experience accelerated recruiter decision-making and became the foundation for Brix’s core product, contributing to 28% faster hiring decisions, 95% feature adoption, and supporting a $10M funding round.

🚀 Launched 2025

💼 B2B SaaS 🤖 AI Agent 🔁 End-to-end

2. Race Against Time

An MR experience from MIT Reality Hack 2025 that turns environmental urgency into an interactive narrative of restoration and responsibility.

🏆 Winner of "Standing on the Shoulders of Sustainability" Track 2025

👓 Mixed Reality 🎮 Game Design

3. OpusClip - AI Video Clipping Mobile Experience

I designed the mobile MVP for OpusClip’s AI video editing app, focusing on fast, steerable AI generation for short-form creators. The streamlined mobile workflows achieved 26% day-1 retention, drove a 12% shift from desktop to mobile usage, and reduced drop-offs during AI generation.

🚀 Launched 2025

🤖 Generative AI ⚡️ Cross-Platform Design

4. Daily Chaos

A VR experience that externalizes inner turmoil. Through an expanding web of words and sound that responds to user interaction, the project explores how attempts to control intrusive thoughts can deepen emotional overwhelm, transforming mental disorder into an embodied, empathetic experience.

👓 VR Design 💬 Interactive Narrative

5. Negotiabbles - Empowering Kids to Master Negotiation

An AI-powered educational app that teaches kids negotiation and empathy through role-play. I led the project from product vision, art direction, and interface design.

🏆 Winner of 2025 Red Dot Design Award Brand and Communication Design - Interface & User Experience Design

🧒 EdTech 🤖 AI Agent

6. Heartie - Smart Companion for Kids with Heart Conditions

I worked on key experience design for Heartie, focusing on end-to-end workflows, illustration, and UX motion. I designed and animated interaction states directly in Figma, using motion and pacing to guide emotional flow, clarify system feedback, and make the experience feel supportive rather than clinical.
