Behind the Making:
Prototyping and Motivation
In the hospital, there was a roll of tissues. On my first day, I didn't have any paper to draw out my ideas, so I quickly grabbed the roll and used it to make some quick sketches. Over time, we continued to use the roll for ideation and prototyping.
“They (Medical practioners) already have a challenging job, using design as a toolkit can reduce some friction”
- What I keep telling myself and the team


Behind the Making:
Impact & Reflection
Infusing the principles of empathy into user research, I strove to understand the mindset of medical practitioners as they used our product, shaping design decisions accordingly. In the fast-paced startup setting, I gently pushed the team to invest in ethnographic research from time to time to truly understand the peripheral needs of end users.
Overall, I considered myself fortunate to have been part of a mission where my design skills were employed in creating better working conditions for our medical professionals.
I feel a sense of gratitude for the opportunity to have collaborated with Instituto de Ojos Dr. Miguel Santiago Oftalmólogos, Carolina, Puerto Rico, in gradually bringing this vision to fruition. I am humbled by the prospect that, in the near future, more hospitals in the United States will adopt the product.
