S&P Global

As an intern I redesigned an SEC filings alert platform as an inbox with a confidence score per filing. Data from active users taught me to go to users first.

Outcome

An inbox with confidence scores

What everyone assumed

I designed the alert platform from conversations with engineers. That gave me an inbox where each filing had a confidence score analysts could agree or disagree with.

What changed

Data from active users pointed somewhere else. Since then I go to the people who use the product first.

My internship concept on a monitor: an alert inbox of SEC filings beside a filing with confidence rings

How it unfolded

As an intern at S&P Global, I redesigned an alert platform for SEC filings. I made it an inbox. Each filing got a confidence score that analysts could agree or disagree with.

I based the design on conversations with engineers. Then data from active users pointed somewhere else.

That taught me a habit I still keep. I go to the people who use the product first.

My bet: three or four people with AI could outpace big teams by defining what to build first. I interviewed product teams and built a generative AI app on it.

Playlist

Claude Code users kept pasting the same skill list into every session. I designed a tool inside the slash menu that saves that list once and plays it by name.

An agency audit pointed to search. Dietitians told me charting mattered most, so I designed a charting extension and a site built around the Nutrition Care Process.

Comply

A regulatory reporting app at EY. I learned the domain from financial experts in New York and London first. That made reporting less manual and more accurate.
