Role
Lead Designer
Global banks needed digital banking solutions fast — responsive, on-brand, and consistent across web and mobile. Design turnaround times were often measured in days, not weeks. The platform had to serve radically different clients with radically different needs.
Developed a themeable Launchpad platform that allowed bank partners to customize interfaces with their branding while building on a shared, tested component foundation. Designed admin panel and CMS improvements for operational control.
Traveled internationally to present proof-of-concept demos to bank stakeholders including ABN Amro, UniCredit, UOB Singapore, and Standard Chartered. The platform went on to serve billions of banking users worldwide.

The themeable Launchpad allowed bank partners to customize interfaces with their branding while building on a shared component foundation. This dramatically reduced implementation time while maintaining UX consistency across every deployment.
