Sailing web3 storms and AI tailwinds

At Metacampus, an edtech startup, I navigated complex product design challenges amidst the frenzied landscape of web3, and the boom of AI. I covered UX, design, and strategy, and played a central role in propelling the platform from concept to reality through continuous experiments and rapid pivots.

Staycations people don't want to leave

Through a close collaboration with Dentsu's innovation team, I oversaw the launch of a mobile web app and notification system, designed to drive organic traffic to trivago.com. We redefined ‘staycation’ by scraping hotels that could be destinations in their own right. The product was later integrated as a feature into the core platform.

Driving family trips and search traffic 

We discovered that, for several months, 70% of American families weren't traveling. Together with a team of engineers, I led the product design and marketing-testing of an MVP in a 12 week sprint. Our objective was to inspire families to embark on hotel trips and boost our website traffic at a reduced cost. The product was later integrated as a feature into the core platform.
