site audit, component library, implementation support
Summary
When I joined Whova, the Organizer Dashboard was an inconsistent mess. New patterns and UI elements were being custom made and introduced almost every release. This made it harder and harder to design and implement anything. Designers were constantly re-discovering old patterns and progress was slow. I identified early on that a design system would be a good investment and partnered with another designer to evangelize its benefits. Getting the approval to work on the design system took 3 months and many conversations, but it has been one of the most impactful contributions I’ve made to the team and company.
