How We Feel, a collaboration lead by Pinterest logo Pinterest co-founder Ben Silbermann and Yale logo Yale research psychologist Dr. Marc Brackett, is an emotion-tracking app that helps users understand and respond to their feelings using science-backed tools.

Working alongside a design lead, I helped translate complex psychological research tools into intuitive, engaging experiences. The app guides users through their Green heart emoji daily emotional journey, helping them identify and label their feelings, take evidence-based actions to manage their emotional state, and cultivate deeper self-awareness through consistent practice.

Apple App Store award icon Since its launch, How We Feel has garnered widespread recognition, earning Apple's 2022 Cultural Impact Award, a 2023 Webby Award Honoree distinction, selection as an App Store 2024 Social Impact Finalist, and 4.9 stars in the app store.
