    uniE621 FlowCare
    Flow Care originated from the critical menstrual health needs of rural Ugandan girls served by Plavio Uganda—where scarce facilities, limited pads, and stigma cause school absences—beginning with my primary Figma wireframes that I then used as templates within Figma Make AI for this Contra competition entry, blending human-centered UX with smart automation. These foundational wireframes drove intuitive workflows featuring user-friendly navigation, accessible UI components, symptom-tracking sliders, clear medical data visualizations, and offline functionality to deliver knowledge, confidence, and discreet cycle support. This inclusive app design handles sensitive topics through simple onboarding, calendar integration, and culturally sensitive aesthetics, highlighting my dedication to impactful health tech for underserved African communities. https://www.twine.net/signin UXDesign UIDesign MobileApp Figma FigmaMake HealthTech MenstrualHealth WomenHealth NGODesign SocialImpact Accessibility ContraCompetition HealthcareUX AppDesign AfricanNGO PeriodTracker EmpathyDesign…

    uniE621 Unpredictable: The Walk In and Out of Darkness
    In my work on Unpredictable: The Walk In and Out of Darkness, I went beyond a simple website redesign to craft a digital sanctuary that honors Honey Kasper's raw memoir of surviving childhood trauma, abuse, cancer, and 79 surgeries—a powerful story of resilience, faith, and transformation. The original site was outdated and disconnected, failing to capture the emotional depth needed to reach readers in the memoir and self-help space, so I transformed it into an immersive, intuitive experience with thoughtful UX/UI design, including wireframes, prototypes, and seamless user flows. I developed a cohesive visual identity through evocative colors, typography, and imagery, designed the striking "From Darkness to Triumph" logo plus supporting graphics, harnessed Leonardo AI for unique thematic visuals, and brought it all to life with responsive Elementor development on WordPress. https://www.twine.net/signin UXDesign UIDesign WebRedesign WordPress Elementor Figma GraphicDesign LogoDesign VisualIdentity AIArt LeonardoAI AuthorWebsite…
