Challenge
The redesign aimed to make the dashboard intuitive for an older audience without compromising functionality, balancing simplicity with quick access to key features like course enrollment and profile updates. We ensured the design worked seamlessly across mobile and desktop, creating an accessible, user-friendly experience for busy executives while staying true to the platform’s academic purpose.

Solution
Using Google Material Design principles, I redesigned the dashboard to enhance user-friendliness and navigation, focusing on clear visual hierarchy and intuitive interactions. The updated layout ensures a seamless, efficient experience across desktop and mobile, prioritizing accessibility for busy C-suite executives while making key tasks quick and straightforward.
