Aligning business and customer needs to make getting help easier
Customers didn’t know where to go when something went wrong. I pushed back on a quick win brief to redesign contact routing end-to-end, and expanded the project’s scope in the process
43%
projected reduction in workload for one contact area
70%
projected reduction in multi-contact queries
Role
Product Designer leading the experience
Timeframe
2025–2026, currently in phased rollout
Key call
Pushed back on a “combine everything into one form” quick win and got the project’s scope expanded
Customers didn’t know which form or contact method to use when something went wrong with an order, so they’d guess, often picking the wrong route, leaving out details agents needed, or contacting Customer Care multiple times for the same issue. Discovery found that just four contact reasons were driving 57% of unresolved first-contact queries, which is what pushed me to fight for a proper redesign instead of a quick fix. The work also seeded a self-service refunds flow: I sketched the UI direction during this discovery, and a colleague later secured business buy-in and worked out the refund-eligibility logic, before I came back to design it in full across web and app.



Before and after: the old generic contact-form grid versus the new, triage-led routing

The self-service refunds flow this project’s groundwork helped shape

“Demonstrates a deep understanding of customer and user needs and frustration. She designs interfaces that streamline ticket routing, minimize clicks, and present contextual information right when it’s needed, as seen in the Contact Us Redesign Project.”
