Wambi

Wambi is an employee recognition and patient doctor interaction platform. It was founded on the premise that when healthcare workers feel valued and seen, especially by patients and families, experiences are transformed for all people. By fostering ongoing, meaningful connections in real time, Wambi helps individuals realize their impact, reignite their purpose, and in turn want to stay.

 

I worked as the UX Designer and Researcher for Wambi Dec 2022 until January 2024.

Clients

During my time at Wambi, some major clients we worked with were, Methodist Hospital of Southern California, Promedica, Marshfield Clinic Health System, Kaiser Permanente, Hackensack Meridian Health, Indiana University Health, Stanford Medicine Children’s Health

"precise, trustworthy, approachable, reliable"

Problem

Since 2021, staffing challenges have ranked as the number one concern for hospital CEOs according to the American College of Healthcare Executives. Facing personnel shortages and staff burnout, health systems need to prioritize caring for their teams and building better cultures to retain their staff. Burnout and turnover cost the U.S. healthcare system billions of dollars annually—with average turnover costs per RN exceeding $61,000, and hospitals often operating with 15–16% nurse vacancy rates

My Role

-Integrated gamification features to create a more engaging and rewarding user experience.

Cross-Functional & Remote Collaboration

-Managed seamless collaboration across remote teams to deliver on business goals and timelines.

User-Centered Interface Design

-Designed interfaces to address healthcare burnout, incorporating real-time patient and peer feedback.

-Rapidly prototyped features to support agile discussions and iterat

Design Leadership & Strategy

-Led the introduction of data-driven design practices and user testing frameworks.

-Defined and executed research strategies to support decision-making across product teams.

Reflection

I noticed that many design requirements were set by stakeholders—like hospital owners—who weren’t the actual users. As a recent graduate, I was eager to drive decisions through user research and suggested we invest time in interviews. But in a fast-paced, resource-limited startup, that wasn’t feasible. I initially struggled to define design requirements, but with constructive feedback, I adapted. I ran internal user tests with non-design colleagues and used BI tools like Google Analytics to guide data-informed decisions. This helped me balance my design process with the company’s constraints and taught me how to align user needs with business goals.
