The project

Design It! is an on-demand design-learning platform built for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and junior designers who need practical skills fast. The goal: deliver concise, market-ready lessons that combat the 50 % dropout rate typical of Brazilian e-learning. I drove research, curriculum structure, and product design—creating a three-tier track (Essentials, Professionals, Academy), a data-backed content roadmap, and an experience that turns theory into standout portfolios.

4-Week Sprint

We began with targeted user interviews and market analysis, then mapped key journeys into lean user flows. Low-fidelity wireframes were validated in remote tests, feeding a rapid UI & UX design cycle in Figma. Final components were documented and handed off to development in a shared design system, keeping designers and engineers in lock-step from research to release.
