Introduction
I designed WORDS, a vocabulary learning app that empowers users to improve communication skills and feel confident in professional settings — anytime, anywhere.
WORDS is a vocabulary learning app designed to help users expand their professional vocabulary efficiently. It introduces new words daily and offers an intuitive, visually appealing interface with personalized learning, progress tracking, and engaging features like themes, background music, and a speaker.

Using the insights that I gained during discovery, I refined the probIem statement. Then I crafted a proto-persona, user stories and job stories to help guide features and design decisions.
