Branding

LOGO

I designed the logo to feel simple, recognizable, and approachable rather than corporate.
while still being bold enough to stand on its own in small applications like badges, stationery, and digital surfaces.
I wanted it to have enough character to be memorable, but not so much detail that it would break down when scaled or paired with other elements.

INTERVIEWS SHOWED:

Career advisors werent lacking data. They were lacking a clear way to make sense of it and act on it.

Student information existed but was fragmented across emails and spreadsheets, making it hard to interpret and even harder to turn into action.

Design Challenge

How might we help advisors move from information → judgement → action?

Design Approach

Instead of showing everything, I focused on:

  • what advisors need to understand

  • what they need to do next

So I designed a platform that brought together:

  • student profiles and evaluation scores

  • internal opportunities for CMU students

  • external opportunities posted elsewhere

  • roles and permissions across advisors, admins, and employers

Design Solution

Design Solution

Design Solution

Making student evaluation interpretable

Scoring system turns abstract data into something advisors can reason about.

Connecting students to opportunities

Reduce friction between “understanding a student” and “taking action”.

Reducing context switching

Keep thinking and action in the same place

What I learned

What I learned

What I learned

I learned that building from 0→1 is less about designing features, and more about deciding what the product should be.

I learned that building from 0→1 is less about designing features, and more about deciding what the product should be.

There was no “existing flow” to improve. Every decision, like what to show, how to structure it, what comes first, shaped how users would work. That forced me to think more in terms of workflow and relationships between data, not just screens.
