02Overview

TL;DR

Short two-to-three sentence summary: the problem we set out to solve, who it was for, and the outcome we shipped. Keep it tight — a reviewer should grasp the project in under fifteen seconds.

03Challenge

The challenge

Plain-language statement of the real problem and why it mattered. One sentence on business stakes, one on user stakes — no jargon, no setup, no marketing.

04Research

Research & discovery

What I did to understand the problem: interviews, diary studies, analytics review, competitive teardown. Two or three insights are what mattered.

  1. 01

    Insight one

    The headline insight in a sentence, then a beat of evidence that grounds it.

  2. 02

    Insight two

    Second insight that reframed the problem and shaped the direction we ultimately took.

  3. 03

    Insight three

    Third insight — often the uncomfortable one that killed an obvious solution.

05Process

Process & decisions

How I moved from insight to solution. The explorations that mattered, the decisions I made, and the tradeoffs I weighed out loud with the team.

  • Decision one

    What was on the table, what I picked, and the tradeoff I accepted.

  • Decision two

    The second key call — usually where craft and constraint collided.

  • Decision three

    A decision I'd defend in a Staff review — the reasoning, not the artifact.

06Solution

The solution

The final design, walked through by the flows that carry the most weight. Not a screenshot dump — a guided read.

Flow 01

Primary flow

How a user accomplishes the core job, and why each step earns its place.

The edge case that proves the system holds up under real conditions.

Where numbers don't tell the whole story: the qualitative shifts in team confidence, customer trust, or the way the product is talked about.

08Reflection

What I'd do differently

One short paragraph on what I learned, what I'd revisit, and the muscle this project built. Honest, specific, and short.
