CASE STUDY | data mapping, ux & ui design
Making Teachers' Lives Easier by Creating a Feed for Student Activity
Like LAX and Philly’s potholes, we are under construction!
There’s always something to add to a story—new illustrations, structural adjustments, or clarifications. In the case study in progress below, you may see multiple iterations on a section, layout experiments, and more.
I believe sharing the process is how design and communication improve, so feel free to take a look!

Wireframes and artifacts
The wireframes in this case study are semi-fictional. Functionally, they are based on actual designs I created for American Reading Company. However, I have simplified elements of the interface that were not relevant to this project, anonymized all customer data, and given my own spin to the style elements and page structure.
Illustrations
I use illustrations to tell the UX Research part of this story. In some places, I use them to demonstrate the function of a decision-making artifact because the actual Confluence documents and tables I created remain confidential. Illustrations are composed from multiple Excalidraw libraries and include my own additions, also drawn in Excalidraw.
Animation
Created by me, in Figma.
