UX/UI Design
6 Person Team
10 Hours (One Day Design Jam)
JUNO was designed for a one-day design jam that challenged us to create and design an application regarding the health and well-being of Canadians. Our team chose to focus on the health and well-being of pregnant women and new mothers in Canada. My role in this project was to create and refine the user interface and user prototype.
1 in 5 Canadian women experience PMHD (prenatal mental health disorders)
87% of health care providers were not mandated to provide screening for PMHD, over 50% lacked training
Survey-based research has revealed that Canadian women felt that external resources and community-based support were lacking
Our product features and flow were directly influenced by research shared by the National Library of Medicine on pregnant women’s research strategies and habits.
Women highly value other’s experiences
Women want privacy
Women want multiple sources
Participating in a one-day UX design jam was a transformative experience that taught me several invaluable lessons. I learned the importance of rapid ideation and prototyping, embracing constraints as a catalyst for innovation, leveraging collaborative problem-solving, continuously incorporating user feedback, and developing adaptability and resilience in the face of challenges. These lessons have strengthened my design approach, emphasizing the need for agility, resourcefulness, and a user-centric mindset. The fast-paced nature of the design jam challenged me to think creatively, work effectively with cross-functional teams, and quickly iterate on solutions to meet the needs of the target audience. This hands-on experience has undoubtedly equipped me with the skills and mindset to navigate the dynamic landscape of UX design moving forward.
