Product Case Studies
Selected work is presented through product management evidence: problem, solution, and impact.
Problem: A large university web ecosystem needed stronger visibility, continuity, standards, and operational control across many institutional websites.
Solution: Led the product framing for a centralized monitoring and control structure covering requirements, reporting needs, governance workflows, and stakeholder visibility.
Impact: Improved oversight for 182+ websites and created a clearer operating model for institutional web quality and sustainability.
Problem: Institutional knowledge was fragmented across disconnected publishing surfaces and difficult for users to discover consistently.
Solution: Shaped a structured knowledge platform with searchable information architecture, content organization, and a maintainable publishing model.
Impact: Created a durable public knowledge management platform that supports institutional memory, discovery, and long-term content governance.
Problem: Campus visitors, students, and staff lacked an accessible, interactive way to locate buildings, units, and points of interest across the university grounds.
Solution: Built a full-stack interactive campus map application with location search, category filtering, admin management panel, and responsive design for all devices.
Impact: Delivered a live campus navigation platform that improves orientation and accessibility for the entire university community.
Problem: The university needed a structured way to measure, track, and report its institutional carbon footprint across operational units and activities.
Solution: Developed a carbon footprint data collection, calculation, and reporting platform aligned with institutional sustainability and environmental governance goals.
Impact: Enabled data-driven environmental accountability and provided a foundation for the university's sustainability reporting and reduction strategies.
Problem: A complex university information management system needed usability evaluation to identify friction in real institutional workflows.
Solution: Conducted MSc-level usability research, analyzed user experience findings, and translated them into practical improvement priorities.
Impact: Strengthened UX/usability decision-making for enterprise information systems and built a research base for product improvement.
Problem: Digital teams need faster ways to move from requirements to usable product concepts, documentation, prototypes, and workflow improvements.
Solution: Applied AI-assisted development practices to accelerate discovery, structure requirements, improve content workflows, and support product iteration.
Impact: Improved speed and clarity in product development activities while keeping outputs grounded in user needs, maintainability, and governance.
Problem: AFAD and NOAA event data required careful matching, cleaning, risk interpretation, and visualization for decision-oriented use.
Solution: Developed ML workflows with feature engineering, imbalanced data handling, model evaluation, Streamlit dashboards, and geospatial visualization.
Impact: Delivered a platform concept that generates tsunami probability scores and visualizes regional risk patterns for clearer analysis.
