UX/UI & Mobile App Design for Personal Growth and Motivation
📱 Background Story: Turning Goals into a Game — and a Habit
GoToGet is a personal growth app prototype designed to help users set meaningful goals, and actually stick to them through a combination of social support, progress tracking, and gamified rewards.
I led the end-to-end creative direction, combining UX research and user testing to craft an experience that feels intuitive, engaging, and emotionally motivating. The goal was to keep users coming back not out of obligation, but because they genuinely felt supported and empowered in their personal growth journey.
⚡ The Challenge: Motivation Meets Design
Personal development apps are everywhere, but keeping people engaged over time was the real challenge. GoToGet needed a solution that would:
Feel intuitive and accessible from the very first tap, even for non–tech-savvy users.
Deliver a visually rewarding experience that celebrated progress and keeps motivation high.
Seamlessly blend goal-setting with social interaction that fostered community without overwhelming the user experience.
The design had to strike a balance between clarity, emotional resonance, and long-term engagement.
🎯 My Role: Blending Research, Storytelling, and UX Craft
As the creative lead, I brought the GoalToGet concept to life—from initial research to interactive prototype:
Conducted UX research and user testing to uncover user needs, frustrations, and motivations.
Led visual direction and UX/UI design, developing wireframes, high-fidelity screens, and intuitive interaction flows.
Designed storytelling-driven visuals from icons to onboarding animations—to create an experience users could connect with emotionally.
Built interactive user flows supporting goal-setting, habit tracking, progress visualization, and light social engagement.
