Background

In 2012, I identified a gap in the market for specialized supplements catering to extreme athletes and launched a sports nutrition brand to address the need.



Overview

As lead designer at the startup bCharged, I sucessfully drove the creation of a distinctive brand identity and user experience within the competitive health and wellness market.

User Research

My analysis revealed a key difference between traditional supplements and the needs of extreme athletes. While traditional supplements often focus on general health and well-being, extreme athletes are primarily concerned with enhancing performance, mitigating pain, and accelerating recovery.
