In 2021, I had the opportunity to work with Unilever’s marketing team, that markets new product variants called innovations for brands we all love, like Vaseline, Dove, Knorr, and countless other home care products.
I designed solutions that streamlined launch tracking metrics, leading research and conceptualization while collaborating with developers to craft intuitive visualizations in PowerBI.

Managers struggled with accessing key data points efficiently due to limitations in existing PowerBI visualizations.
Solution: Developed a consolidated visualization by integrating two pie charts into a single, streamlined view accessible with a single tap.
Impact: Reduced the time spent on data access from 10 minutes to 4 minutes per session, optimizing workflow.

Managers had just 15 minutes to scan through the data, and while the first iteration was well-received, it didn’t significantly reduce the time to scan.
Research revealed that managers relied heavily on RAG (Red, Amber, Green) filters to navigate data .
Solution: I improved the visual presentation by using RAG representations and making data more prominent by prioritizing key information.
Result: This enhancement led to a 50% increase in the use of key data sections

GROUND WORK
Creating a broader impact
Creating a broader impact
Tweaking the design system
Improved color contrast in the design system by adding high-contrast variations and new components, making it more accessible and visually engaging.
Working with constraints
PowerBI’s visuals were limited, so we brainstormed as a team, explored the library, and tried creative techniques to make our dashboards fresh, interactive, and more engaging!
Streamlining Documentation
I created feedback templates to skip real-time note-taking during reviews—our SCRUM master loved it! It saved the team tons of email threads.
REFLECTIONS
