FinBudget

Budgeting native mobile app for young professionals

FinBudget is a budgeting and micro-investing app that simplifies personal finance for young professionals who want to manage their money, start investing, and achieve financial goals without feeling overwhelmed by complex financial tools.

My Role:

As a 0-to-1 project, I led the end-to-end process from conducting initial user research and surveys to executing in-depth interviews. I translated these insights into wireframes and created prototypes, to iterate based on direct user feedback to ensure a user-centered solution.

What you will see here is mostly final design of the final product.
For the complete process and methodology, please view the Full Case Study here.
