Project Overview

  • real-world connections. Existing friend-finding apps often feel too formal, while platforms like Meetup can lack a sense of trust or immediacy.

    JoinMe was designed to bridge this gap by helping people connect through shared interests in a low-pressure, authentic way. The platform makes it easier to meet new people in real life by allowing users to quickly find and join plans based on common interests and skill levels.

  • As the UX designer on the team from Oct 2023 to Aug 2025, I led the design of the end-to-end user experience, from early research and concept development to final product launch on the App Store, working closely with founders and developers in a fast-paced startup environment.

  • Launched on App store May of 2025, project has been discontinued due to funding

Problem

Every decision we make is shaped by a clear sense of purpose. Our journey has been anything but ordinary. Through every step, we've focused on staying true to our values and making space for thoughtful, lasting work.

Opprotunity

We believe in simple ideas, strong relationships, and lasting impact. What began as a passion project has evolved into something more. We’re proud of where we’ve been and even more excited for what’s ahead.
