The OC Navigator was the culmination of 2 years of research and approvals from the OC Health Agency, Chorus Innovations, and community-led steering committee. I was honored to be the designer that led the charge in leveraging the user research and community meetings to create a fun user-centered resource navigator.
Everything from the icon, logo, gradients inspired by the gorgeous colors in the sky in Orange County, were all carefully designed and tested by users in the community.
The response to the OC Navigator has been overwhelmingly positive and I’m very proud of what we accomplished. Millions of users in underserved communities have used this app to find mental health and basic needs resources to help better themselves and their loved ones.
