Case study:
Password manager onboarding
Email alias onboarding
Case study:
Actionable alerts
When you're delivering bad news, provide actionable steps with relevant information in the proper tone.
If they may be able to safely ignore your alert, tell them that.
Case study:
"Trace" fragrance identifier
A from-scratch project. View it in Figma to see how I turned a prompt into viable onboarding copy.
Case study:
Handshake app rewrite
The final project for UX Writing Fundamentals involves an app called "Handshake". It's a pay app designed to help contractors and business owners interact.
In the original assignment we were asked not to change the design too much. Treat it like someone's work! Leave notes for a design review.
Now that the course is over I'm giving the app another overhaul. I'm currently working toward:
Reduced cognitive load
Adding missing functions
Improved accessibility
Business owner landing page
Contractor landing page
Contractor dashboard
Contractor progress screen
View the whole project, including a before-and-after, on Figma.
