I joined PayPal as Design Lead for the APP team, helping to concept an interface and experience around the novel (at the time) idea of a digital wallet, with a new way to pay in storES. We played with various form factors around ‘checking in’ to pay at a merchant.
A part of the message of paying in stores was being intentional in the use of photography, Showing imagery of actual shops using our technology — in this case, one of my favorite bakeries in sf: ‘Craftsman + Wolves’
I help spearhead the effort to build a custom font for PayPal — to optimize the experience for mobile. And to create a signature font for both brand and product. We worked with Kris sowersby of the Klim type foundry in New Zealand.
