OhioTableTrails
Overview
OhioTableTrails is a food and drink discovery platform that guides users through curated dining experiences in cities, helping them explore restaurants, bars, breweries, and cafés in a fun, gamified way.
As UX/UI and visual designer, I led the user experience, digital interface design, and marketing materials, translating the existing concept into a cohesive platform and engaging visual brand.
Challenge

Solution
I designed an ecosystem that allows users to:

Branding and materials were updated to be playful, clear, and engaging, reinforcing the gamified exploration experience.
Outcome
The design helped OhioTableTrails:
-
Increase user engagement and check-ins
