Even in the early stages of the COVID-19 Pandemic, it was apparent that it was going to greatly effect the mental health of many, particularly Millennials and Generation Z. We found that this group is largely unaware of how to seek the help that they need.

This mobile app's purpose is to provide an experience that appeals to this group -- not only to encourage them to seek any kind of help, but to also lower the barrier of entry to get it.


UX/UI Design + Dev

AFKA Website Redesign↗

The AFKA website is a hub that connects parents to member schools across the US. The past couple years have been a critical opportunity for growth as parents seek out alternative schooling options, however research found that AFKA's website was difficult to navigate and failed to engender trust.

In this redesign project, we tackled these issues with the goal of enabling the AFKA to take advantage of this surge in interest.


UX/UI Design Project

NSA Website Redesign↗

This project was a two-week attempt to redesign a government website. For the NSA website, the primary user breakdown appeared to occur because the navigation and information hierarchy did not meet the user's expections. In addition, the overall colors and design were found to feel disengaging.

The solution features a more streamlined navigation, the increased priority and visibility of cybersecurity alerts, and a design upgrade with brighter colors and an updated logo.
