Project: Comprehensive Reporting System for Elementary Education Platform
Timeline: July 2025–Present
Role: Collaborative UX/UI Designer
Users: Hundreds of educators and thousands of students across seven-state network

  • Collaborated with a design team, researcher, curriculum experts, and engineers to design six report types (three new, three updated) serving students, teachers, school administrators, and district administrators.

  • Designed the Usage Report with single-minded pages and breadcrumb drill-down navigation, allowing each user type to start at their appropriate organizational level and explore data without overwhelming complexity.

  • Created flexible visualization system for the Item Distribution Report using overview and detailed tabs with adaptive question cards that handle diverse question types from multiple choice to constructed response.

  • Developed teacher controls for Student Progress and Individual Assignment Reports, giving educators flexibility to manage what data displays when—respecting the messy reality of classroom data and pedagogical timing.

  • Leveraged Claude to generate realistic curricular materials, course rosters, and user personas for high-fidelity prototype testing with 10-20 educators.

  • Delivered development-ready specifications currently in testing and development, praised by engineering for clarity and completeness.
