Featured Projects
Dapur Penyet - Final year project
Improving F&B operations through digitalisation and automation
Product Manager, UIUX Designer, Backend developer
JIRA, Figma, Github, Docker, AWS
Responsibilities As a product owner, I lead the team in designing the product and its core features. This meant having a clear understanding of the business process to discover pain points. I also took up the role of lead UIUX designer as I had a clear understanding of the product. As a backend developer, I helped set up the backend infrastructure of our web solution. 
Problem Statement “Dapur Penyet(F&B) has inefficiencies in the currentrestocking of inventory for outlets and this poses potential problems when the business wants to scale up in the future”
Solution
 Streamline the processes for all stakeholders to reduce steps and improving efficiency by building a centralised app that brings together different  features into one comprehensive solution
Project Timeline
Figma Figma was used to conceive early wireframes of the solutions, present our ideas to the client as well as serve as a reference for the frontend team Use case: The Jewel outlet runs out of inventory in store and therefor has to create a digital order which is sent to the central kitchen.
JIRA and Confluence JIRA was used to manage our projects via sprints. This meant the creation of story points, prioritising and appointing tasks. Confluence for documentation on sprints, documents like sprint planning and retrospectives.
Scratchbac - Internship
Redesigning the onboarding process and profile page

What is Scratchbac? Scratchbac is a local start-up that aspires to form hyper-local communities in your area by providing a platform to connect you and your neighbors together to satisfy your needs ranging from borrowing a toolkit to fix something, to forming running khakis close to you.
Project 1: Onboarding Page Revamp The onboarding page for Scratchbac initially only included basic profile creation elements like email and password entry. My goal was to enhance this experience by sharing Scratchbac's mission to better inform users on how to use the app, driving better engagement. This project went live on the app. Challenge: Communicating the value and purpose of Scratchbac in a concise and engaging manner. Solution: Developed a 'how to' section that effectively tells the Scratchbac story, integrating Singaporean elements such as the “HDB Ice Cream Uncle” to give a familiar visual element to guide users.
Responsibilities Research & Analysis: Conducted user research, understanding the user journey to understand pain points and gather insights for improvement. Design Thinking Process: Empathising Users, Defining requirements, Ideating solutions, and Prototyping and Iteration Storytelling: Incorporating an engaging and informative story to share the Mission and Vision UI Design: Identifying elements of good onboarding journeys while making it fun and aesthetic
Affinity Mapping The affinity map categorized user feedback to identify themes in user needs and pain points during the onboarding process. Key insights revealed a need for clearer instructions and more information on app features. These findings provided clarity on what elements in the current process could be improved or added.
Improved User Journey After identifying key user needs and pain points, we used the Crazy 8 method to brainstorm solutions. Following refinement, we established an improved user journey to address these needs effectively.
Project 2: Profile Page improvement The profile page is a crucial part of the Scratchbac application, as it allows users to express themselves and interact with others. The initial version lacked detailed user information, which affected trust and engagement. Challenge: Increasing user engagement by providing more detailed and personal profiles. Solution: Added new fields to the profile page to allow users to share more about themselves, fostering better connections and trust. Challenge: Ensuring a smooth transition from design to development. Solution: Collaborated closely with the front-end team, using agile methodologies to iteratively develop and refine the new profile page.
Responsibilities Research & Analysis: Conducted user research to identify key areas for improvement.
UI/UX Design: Designed a more informative and engaging profile page on Figma, adding fields like location, occupation, and interests. User Testing
Front-end Development: Coded the new profile page on Flutter using AndroidStudio and Github, after transitioning to the front-end team.

About me!
Recently just got out from Singapore Management University from a Bachelor’s in Information Systems. Since I was a kid, I’ve always been drawn to the creative side of things and I actually learned how to Photoshop posters since primary school! Even though I focused on IT in Polytechnic and Uni, I always found myself gravitating towards designer duties of my projects, whether this was creating a brand, or redesigning an application interface, I was always involved. I’m excited to continue blending creativity with my technical skills in my career. If you have a project that could use a mix of creative thinking and IT, i’m your guy :-)
