Case Studies

EVO MFG

Redesigned homepage — motion concept, looping
Role Brand & Web Designer

EVO Manufacturing builds premium, USA-made armor and suspension for Jeep and Bronco. The hardware is best in class, so I rebuilt the site for fun to give the brand an identity worthy of the product.

What changed

Brand & Identity

A bolder, blacked-out system with heavy condensed display type that matches the weight of the hardware.

Product Story

An editorial hero and real photography replace the off-the-shelf theme clutter, so the build leads.

Motion

An animated hero and scroll reveals give the page an engineered, in-motion feel from the first second.

Commerce

Cleaner navigation and a faster path to the right kit for a given rig, with less friction to checkout.

Diapp Glucose

Diapp prototype — interactive walkthrough
Role Product & UI Designer

Diapp is a concept for a continuous glucose monitor app. A calm, glanceable companion that turns a noisy stream of CGM data into one clear answer: where am I right now, and where am I heading.

What it does

Right Now

One large reading with trend direction, in a color that shifts with range so status reads in a glance.

Time In Range

A daily snapshot of time in range, average, and estimated GMI, kept simple and free of clinical noise.

Today’s Log

Meals and events tied to the curve, so cause and effect are easy to see and learn from over time.

Alerts

Gentle, prioritized notifications for highs and lows that inform without overwhelming the day.

Designed with AI

I used AI as part of the process to move from concept to a working, interactive prototype fast. Claude helped generate UI directions, refine the glucose data visualization, and build a high-fidelity, tappable version I could test and iterate on in real time. The judgment, art direction, and craft stay mine. AI just compresses the distance between idea and something you can actually feel.
