Motivation & Reward at Skillshare
Motivate and engage members through a reward framework supporting their learning journey
This effort was a key strategy in support of Skillshare’s conversion initiative in 2022.
My role began as Principal Designer, collaborating with a product partner to craft the long-term vision and a phased execution plan that started with Badges. Shortly after, I handed off the work to a Senior Designer, whom I coached in creating the Certificates strategy.
