Projects

2023
Coaches Corner

Coaches Corner is a SaaS designed to help fitness instructors & wellness coaches better manage and track their clients' progress. I designed the landing page to be bold, energetic, and modern, reflecting its respective industry.

In addition to the landing page, I designed a singular flow for the software – taking an admin user from login, to client dashboard, to viewing client uploads & upcoming sessions, updating session notes, and logging out.

2023
Psarakia

Psarakia is an e-commerce website for a tinned-fish brand inspired by Greece and the Mediterranean.

Sejad

Rug websites today don’t reflect the equality or elegance of the rugs they sell. I set out to design a modern, intuitive, and story-rich e-commerce experience for a rug brand called Sejad.

2023
Depuis Toujours

Depuis Toujours was an e-commerce brand that I founded and built, inspired by decades past. It was recently sunsetted in January 2023. I’m creating a website that serves as an archive of the products & campaigns during its four years.
