    uniE621 Total Health — Health & Wellness UX Design
    Overview: Total Health began as a PDF-based health program created by stakeholder K. Powell. The goal was to transform the static document into a mobile-first, interactive website that made reliable health information easier to access, apply, and track in daily life. Research & Design: I conducted user research with individuals interested in improving their health and wellness to understand their goals, challenges, and behaviors. Insights from interviews informed the site’s structure, content hierarchy, and feature priorities. Using Figma, I designed wireframes, mapped user flows, and built high-fidelity prototypes within a small, structured design system. Usability testing guided multiple rounds of iteration to improve clarity, consistency, and ease of use. Solution: Total Health is a mobile website that supports users through a 12-week health program. Users can track weekly lessons, set and monitor goals, log daily habits, and connect with classmates and their trainer—all in one place. The result is a user-centered experience that transforms a static program into an engaging tool designed to support sustainable health change.
