Context


Role:
Product Designer

  • Established design team norms and processes.
  • Collaborated closely with Research, Product, and Engineering.
  • Expanded product offering from COVID-19 to Flu, HIV, and RSV.

Skills: Product/Design Strategy, Stakeholder Collaboration, Prototyping, User Research

Landed Impact: As a Product Designer at Skylight working on SimpleReport, I transformed it from a COVID-19 specific tool into a scalable, multi-disease platform, laying the foundation for long-term product growth and strategic partnership with the CDC.

User Problem: Health workers need a single, streamlined platform to track and report a wider range of diseases beyond COVID-19.

Business Problem & Objectives: Originally, the CDC funded SimpleReport solely for COVID-19. To remain marketable and maintain its strategic partnership with the CDC, SimpleReport needed to expand its capabilities to track other diseases. This expansion has enabled facilities to report over 40 million test results to date for influenza, RSV, and HIV.
