Penn Spark.

Shipping new client products from first concept to launch with teams of 15+ at Penn's student product studio.

Overview

Penn Spark is the University of Pennsylvania's student-run design and development community, where cross-functional teams of designers and developers partner with organizations and non-profits to build software from 0 to 1. I lead a “Red” team as Project Lead and Product Designer.

What I worked on

  • Led a team of 15+ designers and developers shipping new products for real clients, from first concept to launch
  • Defined the end-to-end user flows and the reusable interface systems the team shipped across client deliverables
  • Shipped a client product every semester cycle — most recently Dewey, a book-discovery iOS app (in Selected Work)

Note

I also led Penn Spark's own website redesign; that case study is in Selected Work. Some client-project details are kept private.
