Transforming financial growth through accessible design


Strowz, formerly known as MarketsFlow, is an innovative investment management platform providing users with tailored financial solutions. As part of the rebrand, I collaborated with the team to enhance the platform's usability and visual identity, aligning it with the company's mission to simplify investment management for a diverse audience. My contributions included refining investment dashboards, designing portfolio management tools, and crafting a cohesive brand identity to reflect the platform's vision of merging immersive creativity with cutting-edge financial technology.


Additionally, I worked on marketing assets to support the rebrand, including landing pages, social media visuals, and promotional materials that communicated the platform's unique value proposition to users. These efforts supported product launches and helped establish Strowz as an innovative player in the FinTech space.
