Designing for Financial Well-Being
Understanding that financial stress is emotional as much as it is logistical, I collaborated with behavioral psychologists and conducted extensive user testing to refine the experience through iteration. This included guided coaching flows, interactive financial planning tools, and a more intuitive dashboard. Through trial and error, we continuously improved the user journey, simplifying complex financial concepts and delivering personalized insights. This iterative approach ensured users felt confident in making informed financial decisions without feeling overwhelmed.

Driving Growth & Market Expansion
Beyond product design, I worked on growth initiatives that strengthened Aura’s market positioning. I designed compelling sales collateral, investor pitch decks, and email campaigns, helping drive a huge increase in investor and customer acquisition. Additionally, I developed interactive workshops and marketing touchpoints that converted attendees into paid users.
Expanding Enterprise Partnerships
One of the major milestones during my time at Aura was securing our first large enterprise partnership with Motorola, successfully rolling out Aura as a company-wide HR benefit. This marked a significant step in establishing Aura as a trusted financial wellness solution at scale, proving its value in corporate environments.
