Problem

Onboarding modals are often rage-dismissed, leaving the user uneducated about the benefits of the product.

Solution

Deliver onboarding information when it mattered, rather than all at once. By restructuring the screens into a progressive, contextual onboarding experience, users now encounter guidance at the moment they need it.

My Impact

  • Reimagined the onboarding UI: screen design, illustrations, buttons, and type styles.
  • Designed a new illustration style for Sherwin-Williams.
  • Introduced animation to the opening screen.

User Flow

Partnering with product and UX designers, the user flow was reshaped towards a progressive, contextual flow.

Illustration Component Set

While designing the onboarding UI, we identified an opportunity to evolve the PRO brand through a distinct illustration system. I illustrated and componentized a set of 10 custom illustrations that now live across the PRO experience and various marketing collateral, establishing a cohesive and expressive visual language.
