TL:DR, what did I do?
Dine U is a college dining app designed to address the accessibility of dietary information, and reimagine social interaction in college dining halls.
As the principle product designer, I led user research, wireframing, prototyping and visual branding.
Focused on creating an inclusive experience driven by real user data.
Worked with front-end, back-end, and machine learning engineers to bring this idea into a working prototype.
THE CONTEXT

😭 I'm eating alone again… should've made plans with a friend.
THE PAINPOINT
College students need meals that match their lifestyle, but dining halls aren't feeding the full experience.
I conducted user surveys on 20 students at Columbia, and here's what they think:
