Visor: Parent-Approved YouTube - Because “no YouTube” was never going to work.

A better way for kids to watch YouTube. There is a lot of great content for kids on YouTube, but it is nearly impossible to control what comes up. Visor flips the model by letting you approve the channels your kids can watch—without constantly hovering over them. The best part? No Shorts, no ads, and no algorithm rabbit holes. You can relax knowing your kids are sticking to the channels you've approved. And each week, Week in Review gives you a simple recap of their what they watched.

SILO - Pomodoro timer, designed for Apple Watch

With distractions all around, I set out to build a product that empowers you to pause everything and focus on the moment. Focusing for a period of time and taking short breaks in between (pomodoro method), combined with the haptics of the Apple Watch, allowed me to design and develop an experience I'm proud of... Enjoy!
