Working across UX, AI, systems thinking, and design systems, and shipping end-to-end: research, information architecture, and visual design through to high-fidelity UI, LLM prompts, and production front-end.

Experience

Jul 2025 — Aug 2026

Founding Product Designer

COROS AI

  • Designed an AI coaching product 0 to 1 across web, iOS, and Android, covering ideation, wireframes, and user flows through high-fidelity responsive UI and front-end, taking it from concept to launch in 2 months.
  • Shipped prototypes and interactive widgets as production code (TypeScript, React, Next.js with Claude Code), replacing static handoffs with working builds.
  • Redesigned onboarding and core experiences like chat and settings from 1:1 customer interviews, lifting new-signup next-day return to 55% and weekly active users to 40%.
  • Led migration from MUI to a token-driven shadcn/Tailwind design system (54+ semantic tokens, reusable components, light/dark, published Figma library), cutting design-to-review cycles from days to hours.
  • Authored the LLM prompts generating every on-screen element, prompt-engineered the memory/RAG retrieval behind session history, and built a Streamlit QA harness to validate model outputs.
  • Established brand identity (logo, typography, marketing posts, short-form video, and an investment pitch deck) that helped land the first round of investment.
