Cultivating Meaningful Connections for the Elderly
Google organized a workshop to explore designing technology tailored to the needs of the elderly, a group often overlooked in a world where most tech is built with Gen Z in mind.
My focus in this project is to address how we can help older adults feel more connected and reduce their experiences of social isolation.

While specific details are protected under NDA, the key achievements from this workshop are as follows.
1. Transform research insights to design
Building on research insights, I leveraged existing Google technology to address users' challenges.
2. Fast prototype
During this two-day workshop, I quickly prototyped user ideas, developed user flows and UIs, and iterated designs based on users' feedback, creating solutions closely aligned with user needs.
3. Explore inclusive design
I focused on designing inclusive experiences for the elderly in the context of emerging technologies like AI, including visuals, navigations, and so on.
