CARTRIDGE / 1000X / GROOVE WALLS
Track 01 / Behavioral finance
NyeNada
A mindful-shopping product that reframes impulse purchases as a pause, then shows how avoided spending can become savings or invested wealth.
The problem
Make the distance between want and wealth visible without shaming the customer.
PURCHASE URGE → PAUSE → SAVING / INVESTING PATH
Prioritized a lightweight intervention, tested the language of “waiting,” and shaped the product around a measurable financial choice.

The problem
Convert raw transaction history into recommendations a person can understand and trust.
STATEMENTS → CATEGORIES → PATTERNS → MATCHING SCORE
Defined the first release around statement ingestion, transparent scoring, and a dashboard that moves from “what happened?” to “what next?”

A monthly check-in that compares perspectives, surfaces perception gaps, and turns reflection into practical next steps.

Make soft, emotional signals concrete enough for two people to act on together.
CHECK-IN → COMPARE → REFLECT → PRACTICE
Balanced a low-friction monthly loop with a useful output: radar charts, exercises, and a printable report.

Track 04 / Commerce systems
Charrette
An online storefront for a small creative studio, shaped around browsing, product discovery, and an intentionally tactile cart experience.
The problem
Give a small catalog enough structure to feel effortless without sanding away its personality.
SEARCH → BROWSE → SAVE → CART
Prioritized findability, a clear product hierarchy, and responsive interactions that keep the studio’s voice present.
