Google AI Mode

I collaborated with OrdinaryFolk on a series of sizzles introducing Google AI Mode and Bard, designed to highlight key features with a strong emphasis on UX/UI elements.

Notion AI Assistant

In the spring of 2024, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Buck’s design team to craft a unique personality for Notion's AI Assistant.

We created a lively, interactive character that reacts dynamically to user actions, offering visual feedback tailored to what’s happening. This project transformed everyday interactions into a more intuitive, engaging, and human experience.

Tolan UI Animation

Tolan is a children's app that leverages AI to create an interactive companion, much like a modern-day Tamagotchi. Kids can engage in numerous activities with their virtual friend. The design team approached me to help shape the animation style for the app's user interface.

My role was to develop a consistent motion language that matches the app's mood, focusing on both overall aesthetics and micro-animations.

Whatsapp campaign

Working as part of the team at Hup Studio, I was tasked with creating the mnemonic for the Global Campaign. A mnemonic is a 'device' (image/symbol/glyph) that is used to trigger information. It acts as a vessel for an idea, a visual representation of a concept, like the flag of a country. The mnemonic was going to be the visual core of the campaign.

Although they were not part of a UX/UI project, these animations are a good example of how microanimations can enhance user interfaces.

Delta Locals

Delta Locals is an initiative by Delta Airlines aimed at connecting travelers with locals to create authentic and memorable experiences.

As part of the development team, I joined as a motion designer to enhance the app’s UX/UI. My work involved crafting motion mockups to showcase how the app would function dynamically and defining motion guidelines to maintain consistency and fluidity across its various sections.

Spotify Renaissance

Spotify Renaissance was a series of animations and tests that resulted from a motion exploration for the branding team at Spotify.
