CHANGING HOW EMPLOYEES GET HELP
I transformed a stodgy old intranet into a smart search, with relevancy and machine learning, system to ask questions based on one’s role, geographic location, manager, and time at company.

SYSTEMS MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND
One sure way to extend design, create consistency and speed up development is to create a design system. At Salesforce I was on the Lightning Design System team. As UX Lead on Internal Apps, I also created our own system, an offshoot of LDS but made for Marketing, HR and all teams making things for employees. Now, using AI to vibecode prototypes is about as good as the design system you’ve built.
COMPLEXITY DISGUISED AT SIMPLICITY
Working with Salesforce can be complicated, to say the least. User research showed that Product Managers and People Managers doing so often have 10 tabs open with work. Capado needed an interface that hid complex business setups and helped people focus on work in progress.
RESULT
I designed a conversation-first interface that still highlighted standouts to return to, such as project milestones and artifacts, while keeping disucssion clean. A ‘highlight’ can be clicked so conversation picks up from there.
