Breathspace – Researching the Modern Mindfulness Experience

68% of users reported improved well-being through mindfulness practices—yet many still struggle to access tools that fit naturally into their everyday lives.

Through surveys exploring stress, emotional habits, and self-care routines, I used deep listening and behavioral research to better understand the modern mindfulness user. The findings revealed opportunities to design more accessible, intuitive wellness tools that support people during moments of overstimulation and disconnection

I reimagined how people engage with the news by designing…

The way we structure information shapes how people understand the world.

A bilingual Information Architecture rooted in mindful consumption. Through card sorting (including live Spanish-speaking feedback), I identified a need for personalized, bias-aware content and created a “Build Your Own Navigation” system to restore user control—and reduce news-related stress and overwhelm.

A bright website shouldn’t leave users in the dark.

When a website makes ordering feel like a chore, customers don’t just click away—they give up

I performed a full UX/UI audit on Penny Juice’s website to uncover the friction points blocking trust and sales. Through heuristic analysis, accessibility reviews, and mobile usability testing, I identified major issues in navigation, visual design, and feedback flow. My recommendations reshaped the ordering journey into something clear, intuitive, and conversion-focused—turning frustration into forward momentum for parents, educators, and partners.

What if shopping for furniture felt as calm and organized as the spaces we dream of creating?

I transformed a dated furniture shopping experience by mapping user behavior through card sorting and site mapping. The research showed users think in “room-first” mental models — not just by product type. So I redesigned the Information Architecture to reflect this, creating a more intuitive hierarchy that supports decision-making, reduces overwhelm, and brings emotional trust back to shopping for the home.

What if finding things to do felt less like a hunt and more like an invitation to explore what makes you feel alive?”

I led a cross-functional team through the full UX process…

to create an app for discovering and booking leisure activities. By blending survey insights, demographic patterns, and user flows, we designed an experience that meets people where they are — socially, financially, and emotionally. From persona-driven recommendations to a “Vision Board” feature, every touchpoint was designed to help users plan with ease while feeling seen and supported.
