Selected Work:
WeServe
UI/UX Design – Advisory
WeServe: Creating a community impact and crowdfund platform for civic leaders.
WeServe is platform for Civic Leaders to impact community and help crowd source and crowd fund projects and actions. It’s like a Kickstarter for causes, people in need, civil rights workers, social leaders, community centers, and anyone who wants to take action and change something that isn’t right in your neighborhood, city, country, region, etc.
The main challenge was to organize all the massive amount of information that each project would require on its specific page. It supposed to be a humane mix of Wikipedia, Trello, Asana, Slack and LinkedIn, all of that been super simple for someone who’s never had contact with any of these project tools.
