Role: Rive Motion Designer / Character Animator

Technology Migration: Acted as the primary consultant and technical lead in transitioning the company’s animation pipeline from Lottie to Rive, ensuring a seamless shift across design and engineering teams.

Character Animation System: Designed and animated dozens of unique character assets, including a complex system of gestures and emotions. The focus was on creating a supportive, empathetic, and caring user experience to align with Flo’s brand mission.

Workflow Optimization: Developed interactive assets using Rive’s State Machine, which offloaded the animation logic from the developers to the design side. This significantly reduced implementation time and engineering overhead.

Technical Excellence: Improved app performance and visual quality by leveraging Rive’s real-time interpolation, providing a more fluid and responsive interface compared to traditional formats.

Scalability: Created a library of reusable character components that allowed for rapid iteration and consistent visual storytelling across various features of the app.

Key Results

Speed-to-Market: Accelerated the company-wide adoption of the Rive platform through technical mentorship and high-quality asset delivery.

Resource Efficiency: Saved significant developer hours by delivering "production-ready" interactive files that required minimal coding to implement.

Enhanced UX: Increased user engagement through more expressive and emotionally resonant character interactions.

Thank you for taking the time to explore this case study! I'm always looking for new challenges where I can bridge the gap between motion design and technical implementation.

I'm open to new projects and collaborations. Let’s create something meaningful together!
