Under the mentorship of legendary designer Karl Ulrich, I spearheaded the end-to-end design of a unique “shower whiteboard” — a waterproof writing surface for capturing those fleeting shower thoughts before they slip away. The project prioritized deep consumer understanding, as I attempted crafting an experience that felt seamless in daily life. I honed my skills in material selection, design for manufacturing, and user-centered design. The final concept was shortlisted for presentation at the university’s year-end product design summit.
