Dropbox Comments

While I was on the Dropbox Commenting team, I worked on evolving the comment section on a file preview, and designed the first evolution of Dropbox file annotations.

The goal really fascinated me; keeping the conversation and feedback right where file lives—not in a separate email thread or chat. We saw a huge opportunity to help our users make collaboration a lot easier and faster.

The design work had really fun challenges. Some include creating an intuitive comment ordering, introducing conversation threading, ensuring interaction consistency across all kinds of file types, annotation visual strategy to work on top of any type of background, highlighting accessibility, visualizing comment status, etc.

This project allowed me to go deep on a very niche user workflow, interaction design and accessibility.
