Project Overview
Sweetch is an AI-powered health app that gamifies habit-building for adults 45 + living with diabetes, hypertension and other chronic conditions. Personalized nudges turn everyday actions into bite-sized “micro-goals,” driving lasting change. I was brought in as an embedded Product Designer to elevate the entire user experience end-to-end.

My Role
Partnered with 3 PMs to frame problems, run design-thinking sprints, and set clear KPIs.
Translated analytics into end-to-end UX upgrades, easing flows for 45 + users.
Built high-fidelity prototypes to test ideas and win stakeholder buy-in.
Expanded the design system for consistent, accessible delivery.

Age friendly first: larger touch areas, clear typography, and no-keyboard flows for users 45 +.
Frictionless daily use: remove steps that slow habit tracking and medication logging.
Behavior change, not just UI translate clinical goals into motivating micro interactions.

Research & Findings
How I uncovered what really matters:
Analytics deep-dive:Mapped sessions, taps, and task-times across every core flow. biggest slowdown surfaced in daily logging and onboarding.
Competitive teardown: Deconstructed habit forming health apps (Noom, Omada, Livongo, SmartDiet) to borrow proven gamification and micro coaching patterns.
Gamified Micro-Goals
Points, streaks, and gentle nudges turn clinical tasks into smalls wins that keep motivation high.
One-Tap Logging
Meal tiles replace typing, slashing task time and removing the biggest drop off in our analytics.
Built-In Readability
Clean default fonts keep the UI sleek, while automatic text scaling kicks in for older eyes.

Process & Solutions
TL;DR
During my time at Sweetch, I improved multiple user flows across the platform. This portfolio highlights two key projects: redesigning the food logging experience to reduce friction and building medication management from scratch to support hospital partnerships.

Improving Food Logging Flow
Challenge: Analytics showed users were dropping off during food logging due to unclear visual states, inefficient multi step processes, and accidental data loss - preventing consistent nutrition tracking.
My Approach: I analyzed competitors (Noom, Omada, MyFitnessPal), sketched solutions, and collaborated with product managers to redesign two critical steps: food search and quantity selection.
No option to save/reuse previous portions or frequent amounts.
Opens as modal overlay - splits the flow into multiple steps
Before
There is no breakdown of what a meal consists of.

Building Medication Management
Challenge: Hospital partnerships needed medication tracking-
but the feature didn't exist.
My Solution: Designed guided onboarding for setup and dual tracking paths: domain page for review, quick shortcut for daily logging.
Reduced food logging from multiple steps to one-tap for frequent items - cutting time and friction for daily users.
Search-first wizard walks users through medication selection, type, dosage, frequency, and timing - ensuring clinical accuracy while preventing errors through progressive disclosure.
Global + button with time filtering - batch logging in seconds without navigation.

Outcomes & Impact
As sole designer across 5 core domains, I built a design system that accelerated development while ensuring platform-wide consistency. The redesigned flows enabled partnerships with 3 major hospitals and improved user engagement by approximately 25%.
