PROJECTS & CASES

From product discovery to delivery.

Team projects, an individual Spotify case, an independent Duolingo case, and hands-on experience in AI and digital systems.

INDEPENDENT PRODUCT · IN PROGRESS

From problem discovery to launch and iteration

This is not a rigid sequence: value and economics are checked throughout development, and post-launch data feeds new hypotheses. I am keeping the app idea private for now.

NOW: BACKEND
  1. 01DISCOVERY

    Problem and user pain

    Interviews: how often it occurs and how people solve it today

  2. 02SOLUTION TEST

    Prototype and feedback

    Test the flow before investing in full development

  3. 03MVP & ECONOMICS

    First-version scope

  4. 04BUILDING · NOW

    Building the app

    Backend in progress; using Swift and Codex

  5. 05AFTER RELEASE

SMART ARCHITECTS · BUSINESS ANALYST

A shared workspace for cross-team work

February 2024 - February 2025

Designed and rolled out a shared cross-department system in Notion and Knowledge Space: each department had its own dashboard, with a consolidated task view for leaders. Requests were created once and every task was copied to email, removing the need to track the same work in Jira and Telegram.

    Context and task stay in the shared workspace.

    Teams and leaders can see the work

    Departments use their own dashboards; leaders use the consolidated task dashboard.

    The task is copied to email

    The same task does not need to be tracked separately in Jira and Telegram.

MY MAIN CONTRIBUTION

Independently designed the shared workspace and rolled it out across departments, from team and leadership dashboards to a single request flow and email notifications.

  1. 01Department dashboards for team tasks, projects and working information
  2. 02A shared workflow for requests between departments
  3. 03A leadership task dashboard for coordination
  4. 04Automatic email copies of new tasks
30%less time spent coordinating across departments
40employees I trained to use the system

Estimate method: compare coordination time before and after rollout, measuring the difference against the original time.
