*** The product design changed in 2013 when they pivoted to focus on education -- I was not a part of this. However, the initial design decisions from 2012 created a flexible, coherent product core that drove key behaviors and was extensible. ***

As humans, stories and oral tradition largely connect us to our families, friends, and culture. But currently, this tradition is being lost in a sea of one-dimensional images. Oftentimes photos cannot preserve the most important details -- details like the stories surrounding the photo and the voices behind it.
But these stories do exist, and they emerge in conversation when we gather and share them. This is what we're working to preserve. Specifically, we are designing a product to capture and curate the voices, young and old, of the people and stories that matter most to us.

I guided and shaped the design and development of this product from concept through fruition (including all aspects of aesthetics, design language, interface, workflow, and development).
