Through my strategizing work, it has been hammered in that people pay for tools/systems that give them convivence and immediate results. So that has been part of my ramp up with the products I have been building.
I updated my free Individual Giving Back Guide to include a Volunteer Time Calculator spreadsheet to calculate the amount of time you can volunteer based on your schedule from a daily, weekly and monthly basis, along with my self reflecting instructions.
You always wonder what make your own builds unique. A reoccurring theme for me seems to creating inclusive guides and tools to get the user to build a level of self-awareness.

Designing MindBloom: How Pure Sociology Shaped My Latest Mental Health App Prototype 🧠🌿
Pretty screens are everywhere, but digital wellness products only work if they truly align with human behavior.
When I built MindBloom—a mental health support mobile app featuring mood tracking, guided meditations, and instant therapist chat—I didn't just focus on the pixels. I started with my academic roots in Pure Sociology.
Empathetic Layouts: Using calming sage green and warm lavender palettes because color psychology is deeply tied to social environments.
Behavioral Tracking: Structuring the mood tracker and daily streak elements around actual human habits, not just random gamification.
Accessible Support: Designing a seamless, low-friction interface for the therapist chat screen, reducing the social anxiety of seeking help.
By combining modern AI-assisted design workflows with deep sociological insights, I turn abstract human needs into intuitive digital structures.
I’m actively looking to collaborate with founders, product managers, and teams who want to build digital solutions that deeply understand people.
Check out the interactive MindBloom prototype screens below and let me know your thoughts!

Starting from sociological theory and working toward the UI is a different way to approach this kind of product. The decision to use sage green and lavender specifically because of their psychological associations with social safety is the kind of detail that usually gets left out of most wellness app case studies.
Lately, I've been spending my free time building projects that have one thing in common: they exist to help people.
✨ AccessPath+ – designed to make everyday support and accessibility resources easier to navigate.
🧠 NeuroPath – focused on creating tools and resources that support neurodivergent individuals and mental wellness.
❤️ VitalSync – a health companion concept centered around organization, wellness, reminders, and personal health management.
🌎 HealthConnect Universal – my newest concept currently in development, bringing together healthcare navigation, insurance support, mental wellness, accessibility, provider connections, and community resources into one connected experience.
None of these started with the question, "How can I make money from this?"
They started with: "How can I make something that genuinely helps people?"
I'm still learning, refining, and growing with every project, but seeing these ideas evolve from concepts into working prototypes has been incredibly rewarding.
Excited to keep building, keep learning, and see where these ideas lead next.

Working on the home screen for a project and exploring a few different directions 👀
The goal is to make discovery feel more personal and intuitive while keeping accessibility at the center of the experience. Right now I’m testing different layouts for recommendations, AI interactions, and overall information hierarchy.
Would love some fresh feedback ✨
Which variation do you like the most and why?
Your feedback could genuinely shape the final direction.
