Jodie’s work at Fidelity Investments centers on bringing sophisticated investment tools to users with clarity and speed. Her work on the flagship mobile app includes: a redesigned Option Chain & Trade experience that combines user-friendly, data-driven design with powerful functionality; an updated Equity Trade flow that helps investors stay confident and connected in every market moment; a net new Auto Invest capability that makes recurring investing available to customers at all stages of their investing journey; and a reusable Brokerage Quote that delivers a consistent approach to quote displays across the app.

In two UX case studies drawn from in-person experiences, Museum Mobile offers a mobile-first strategy that extends the museum experience beyond its walls, while Salad Solutions considers the effects of digital interventions on a downtown salad bar. Turning toward architecture, Transbay Block 9 takes part in a mixed-use urban development project whose goal is to transform the area into a transit-friendly, high-density neighborhood. Contemporary Art Institute finds form through material exploration and beauty in contrasts. The act of making is again spotlighted in Making Models, which looks at physical models as a means for communicating design intent at various altitudes. Design’s central role in storytelling plays out in Knobs — an exercise in uncovering an identity system around found objects, and in In Motion — examples of enriched digital storytelling through animation.
