04 · Product investigation
HealthConnect — Telemedicine & EHR Integration
Systems coordination across 50+ hospitals · implementation planning · cross-functional execution
The challenge
Fragmented patient data systems, disconnected telemedicine infrastructure, and misaligned stakeholder incentives across a healthcare network. No single owner. No clear path.
The real product problem wasn't technical — it was coordination. Success required treating communication and trust as core product features.
How I approached it
- Mapped stakeholder power vs interest across clinical, IT, compliance, and admin
- Designed communication architecture as a product layer, not an afterthought
- Structured a 12-week phased rollout with adoption checkpoints
- Analyzed operational and compliance risks per phase
- Balanced scalability, usability, and regulatory constraints simultaneously

05 · Retention analysis
Meal Planning App — The Execution Gap
Behavioral analysis · retention strategy · onboarding design for beginner users
Users weren't failing during planning.
They were failing during execution.
Research conducted
- Feature adoption and drop-off analysis
- User segmentation — beginners vs experienced
- Journey mapping through Days 1–14
- Behavioral pattern analysis at drop-off windows
- Survey design and synthesis
Product decisions
- Beginner onboarding flow with reduced complexity
- "Start small" 3-meal plans for week one
- Retention nudges during the Days 5–8 drop window
- Grocery integration linked to completion rates
- Adaptive customization unlocked after first win

06 · UX sprint
Temu UX Sprint — Cognitive Overload and the Trust Deficit
Design sprint · trust vs engagement tradeoffs · purchase confidence
The strategic tension
Temu optimized engagement aggressively — at the direct expense of usability, trust signals, and purchase clarity. A classic product tradeoff: short-term metrics vs sustainable conversion.
Engagement without clarity creates friction at the point of decision-making — where it matters most.
Proposed solution — "Focus Mode"
- Cleaner visual hierarchy separating utility from gamified browsing
- Reduced overlays and interruption patterns
- Price stability indicator to rebuild trust
- Distraction-free checkout path

07 · Systems analysis
Chowdeck — Order Accuracy & Fulfillment Trust
Research-driven product investigation into customization failures and workflow accountability
The product question
Why were users receiving orders that didn't match what they selected? The surface problem was delivery inaccuracy. The real problem was a communication gap across the fulfillment workflow.
It wasn't a delivery failure — it was an accountability gap between restaurant confirmation and actual fulfillment.
Research foundation
- 48-user survey on order accuracy experiences
- Behavioral and support-ticket analysis
- Root cause investigation across the fulfillment chain
- Secondary reviews and pattern analysis
Solution direction
Real-Time Substitution Approval — a communication layer that brings the user back into the fulfillment loop before the order ships, reducing mismatches and rebuilding trust at the point of uncertainty.
Fulfillment workflow
Communication breaks between restaurant confirmation and fulfillment — the user is excluded from this window.
With solution → Restaurant flags substitution → Real-time user approval → Fulfillment proceeds
