Case Studies.
BONUSRIGHT
UI/UX Design for Web Application
I improved the user experience of a complicated spreadsheet system for employee bonus programs by developing a new UI/UX design. The new design made the system easier to use, improved the efficiency and accuracy of the bonus tracking process, and was a win-win for businesses and employees.
SAVAGE SERVICES
UI/UX Design for New Mobile & Web Application
Developing a new ETS application was needed for Savage Services to simplify processes throughout the company. Savage recently acquired Environmental Sector (Enviroserve) and provides emergency response, environmental remediation, and waste management solutions for customers across the United States.
JP STRONG
Passion Project
When you see children facing challenges and are passionate about a cause, you do what you can to help. I designed a T-shirt to support JP Gibson, a hero of mine who was fighting cancer for the second time. The Utah Jazz printed 500 shirts for the #JPStrong campaign, which sold out within minutes, gaining momentum. The NBA approved the logo quickly, and with the Jazz’s promotion, over $12,500 was raised to support the Gibson family’s medical expenses.
