OSTIN

Cross-platform information retrieval and recommendation plug-in application for Bosch Global business services

As a UI/UX design intern on the OSTIN project team, I helped design and develop a versatile plugin to address fragmented information and large data volumes at Bosch. By integrating multiple databases, the project provided customized information retrieval and recommendation services. 

I collaborated with product managers, pilot users, and developers, redesigned the information architecture, optimized the search experience, and independently designed the recommendation feature.

ReRitual

Sustainable memorial service to reduce the environmental impacts of rubber balloons 

In this sustainable design project, we focused on the overlooked environmental impact of disposable latex balloons. By analyzing consumer behavior and critiquing disposability culture, we identified design interventions. Collaborating with LokaReboon, we proposed setting up balloon recycling bins at weddings and turning collected balloons into keepsakes. This initiative aimed to enhance emotional engagement and recycling motivation, creating a "sustainable memorial ritual" service.

Not  A Second Bedroom

Transforming under-utilized high street bank branches into vibrant community hubs for female-led SMEs, connecting them with space and support to thrive.

Female entrepreneurs represent only 20% of founders, with just 2% securing VC funding. Through qualitative research, I uncovered significant gender disparities and the digital barriers SMEs face. To address these challenges, we launched the Not A Second Bedroom (NAB) initiative—entreprenerial hubs within underused bank branches, providing flexible workspaces, tailored financial services, networking, and mentorship. NAB offers essential support for female entrepreneurs, fostering business growth and positioning the bank as a key partner in their success.

This project addressed the challenges faced by bulimia patients, who struggle with shame and find it difficult to achieve recovery independently. We developed a 4-week guilded self-help recovery program to lower the barriers to professional support, addressing economic, time, and geographic constraints. The experience encourages self-exploration and progress, with visualized achievements to motivate continued recovery.
