My Approach

In just 7 weeks, I led the project, from ideation to launch, developing a unique color palette and UX strategy to help Blackout XP stand out. Collaborating with stakeholders, I aligned the design with brand goals, creating wireframes based on user research and competitor analysis.

I worked closely with a web engineer to bring the design to life, focusing on accessibility and usability. This resulted in a successful launch that met the tight deadline without compromising quality
