Heroic Development & Supergreen
Two years of industry SaaS design — real products, real users, shipped features
Overview
Before finishing my degree at Northwest University, I started working in industry. What followed was two years of shipping real features for real users — moving between Heroic Development and Supergreen, working across a range of SaaS products from board management platforms to multi-product design systems.
This page covers the work I can describe without NDA restrictions. Screenshots and prototypes are available on request for roles that match the work.
At Supergreen I designed across multiple SaaS products simultaneously, working inside a shared design system that spanned web and mobile. The pace was fast — weekly review cycles, rapid iteration, and close collaboration with developers to make sure nothing got lost in the handoff.
My work here covered the full design range: feature specs written before wireframing, component-level UI work inside the design system, responsive layouts for web and mobile, and light/dark mode across every surface.
- Designed high-fidelity interfaces across multiple SaaS products using a shared component library
- Wrote feature specs before opening Figma — defined scope and edge cases up front
- Operated in weekly review cycles with direct developer collaboration
- Built and maintained components in the shared design system including light/dark mode variants
- Contributed to responsive web and mobile layouts across the product suite
- Managed multiple concurrent workstreams without dropping quality on any of them
Dark theme SaaS product UI — part of the Supergreen design system
At Heroic Development I led design on a board management SaaS platform — a complex product used by organizations to run structured board meetings, manage documents, and track members and responsibilities. I owned six or more core features from discovery through developer handoff.
This is also where I did my capstone project — the Retirement Budget Calculator Onboarding redesign for Parker Financial, one of Heroic's clients. That project went from research to investor-ready prototype inside a single semester and was used directly in stakeholder presentations.
- Led design on 6+ core features: dashboard, meeting manager, document editor, member manager, authentication flows
- Conducted competitive analysis across board management platforms to inform feature decisions
- Designed responsive web and mobile interfaces across the full product
- Built prototypes used in investor and stakeholder presentations
- Collaborated directly with the development team to maintain design quality through build
- Delivered the Parker Financial onboarding redesign as a capstone — cut time-to-first-value from 8+ minutes to under 3.5 minutes
Board management platform UI — Heroic Development professional work
My first professional design role. I contributed wireframes and high-fidelity prototypes supporting the product planning process at Heroic Development. Several of the flows I designed as an intern became part of the core product and were iterated on in my later full-time role.
- Developed wireframes and high-fidelity prototypes for product planning sessions
- Contributed flows that were integrated into the core product build
- Learned to work inside an existing design system and extend it without breaking consistency
Other design work
Orbit Aerospace — Brand Book
A branding project for Orbit Aerospace, a fictional aerospace company. I designed a full brand book covering logo system, typography, color palette, iconography, and brand application guidelines. This was an academic project exploring brand identity design outside of UX — applying the same systematic thinking to visual identity.
- Designed a complete logo system with primary, secondary, and icon mark variants
- Built a full brand book covering all usage guidelines across print and digital
- Section 9 (Iconography) — developed a custom icon set consistent with the brand's aerospace identity
- Orange + blue color palette conveying precision, technology, and exploration
