Helped conceptualize a new audio streaming app

The Senior Product Owner of Radio came to me with an idea for an all-in-one audio streaming app, combining live radio, podcasts, and the like.

They had been pitching the idea for almost two years and, while realizing a visual approach would be more effective, I designed a fully functional prototype and the project was shortly green-lit and launched within seven months of the start date.

Tori’s expertise in design and product development were absolutely invaluable
—we couldn’t have done this without her.

Created a brand-book to bridge siloed teams together while conducting user testing

During my time at CircleCI, I noticed that teams were working in silos and often misinterpreting project goals. To help bridge that gap, I introduced a brand book to align the teams and foster better collaboration. I also led user testing efforts to help the team gain deeper insight into their audience and create more informed, user-focused work.
