Vail Resorts Epic App

Vail Resorts wanted to imagine what the future of their My Epic app could look like- something beyond just a day-pass app. They were looking for a vision that connected every part of the guests' journey from planning their ski trip to being on the mountain, and back home excited for more.

We created a vision prototype that introduced a new visual style, showcased mapping features, trip recaps, and told an on-mountain story about bringing friends and family together on the slopes. I led the UX for the flow and built the animated prototype that connected each moment-from planning a trip, to navigating the mountain with an AI chat assistant, to a personalized trip recap at the end. The visual designer on my team owned the new visual style.

This was one of many projects I worked on with Vail through Mondo Robot. Over time I contributed to the Find My Friends feature and its entry point, onboarding flows with animations, and vision work for their iOS 18 launch. I presented directly to the client, walked through design rationale between options, QA tested app features, and worked closely with developers to align on implementation approaches.

Of everything I worked on with Vail, the vision prototype was my favorite. It gave me room to experiment, stay visually focused, and help define what the future of their digital experience could actually feel like. (And it taught me to aggressively name all my Figma layers:)
