BLOOM
Bloom is a social media app that creates community for people based on their aura color. Users can take a quiz to determine their aura color and then join a community of people with the same aura color. Users can post, comment, and like posts within their community as well as events.
As the lead designer, I guided the team through the full design process from ideation to hi-fi prototyping. While Bloom is currently a Figma prototype, it was created by a team of full-stack developers (myself included) exploring the design process from a developer’s perspective.

✺ CHALLENGES
The biggest challenge was scoping down the concept into something achievable and maintaining visual and functional coherence. As developers, we had a tendency to want to “build everything.” I helped the team prioritize must-have features and designed interfaces that were both beautiful and practical for a real-world build.
OUTCOME
Bloom was a valuable opportunity for our team of full-stack developers to walk through the full design cycle. It gave us a deeper appreciation of UX and the design-developer relationship. The final Figma prototype includes:
The experience helped shape how we approach design in our future developer roles — with empathy, structure, and intention.
