WanderWise is a mobile travel planning application designed to simplify the journey from inspiration to itinerary. As a solo UX design project completed in May 2023, this iOS application addresses the common pain points travelers face when organizing trips.

User Problems

Modern travelers face a paradox: endless information but limited clarity. Between comparing destinations, managing bookings across multiple platforms, and coordinating with travel companions, the planning process becomes overwhelming rather than exciting. WanderWise was conceived to transform this chaotic experience into something intuitive and purposeful.

Building itinerary, skipping the headache.

WanderWise compiles and suggests activities based on the user's preference. For example, I personally enjoy taking photos of the most signature destinations in each city. The app detects my location in New York City and recommends destinations like Times Square and Conservatory Garden.

While the high-fidelity designs and final implementation are still in progress, the WanderWise project demonstrates my approach to human-centered design:

  1. Research-driven decisions grounded in competitive analysis and user needs

  2. Systematic ideation that explores multiple solutions before committing

  3. User-centric flows that prioritize clarity and reduced friction

  4. Iterative wireframing that tests concepts early and often

This project reinforced my belief that great UX design isn't about adding features, but about thoughtfully solving real problems in ways that feel effortless to users.

Next Steps

As WanderWise continues development, upcoming work includes:

  • Usability testing with target users to validate design decisions

  • High-fidelity prototyping to refine visual design and interactions

  • Accessibility audits to ensure inclusive design

  • Iterative refinement based on user feedback
