Explore Vanishing Emails, a Cannes Lions award-winning project tackling CO2 emissions from email storage. This innovation automates the deletion of temporary promotional emails, reducing digital carbon footprints with advanced AWS technology.

As a User Experience Designer, I led the design and development, ensuring the application met user needs and environmental goals. I conducted user research, designed intuitive interfaces, prototyped, and collaborated with cross-functional teams.
Our structured, iterative design process incorporated user feedback and environmental considerations at every stage. We began with thorough research, moved to ideation and prototyping, and continuously refined the design to meet both user needs and sustainability goals.
Key skills I used included user research, UI/UX design, prototyping, and collaboration. The project’s primary output was an innovative feature that reduced CO2 emissions by automating the deletion of expired promotional emails, improving both sustainability and user experience.
We developed a feature on AWS to intelligently manage email storage, using advanced algorithms to tag and delete emails. Our solution prioritized user privacy and efficient data handling within AWS's secure infrastructure.
Results included a user-friendly AWS feature that significantly reduced email storage volume and CO2 emissions. This positioned AWS as a leader in digital sustainability, enhancing user experience and operational efficiency. We learned the importance of collaboration and user-centric design in addressing environmental challenges. Continuous iteration was key to adapting to evolving needs and technology.
In conclusion, our innovative solution leveraged AWS’s infrastructure to reduce CO2 emissions and improve efficiency. We remain committed to driving positive change and a sustainable future.
