2026 · Health-tech product, brand system and web app · 2026, ongoing, co-founder and product lead

A health-tech product built so women can advocate for themselves.

MenstrualBae turns menstrual and reproductive health information into something a woman can actually use in a consultation room. I co-founded it, designed the brand system and the illustration, shaped the product, and built the web app.

  • Co-founder
  • Product lead
  • Brand strategy
  • Brand and illustration design
  • UX and product vision
  • Web app build

What I led

  • Brand strategy and the full brand system, from name and positioning through to the visual language and tone.
  • Illustration and the mascot, giving a clinical subject a character women recognise rather than a medical diagram.
  • Platform concept and product vision, turning an idea into a scalable health-tech product rather than a content page.
  • User experience, structuring body literacy and cycle education so complex clinical information reads plainly.
  • Building the web app itself at menstrualbae.app.
  • Drawing on my nursing and medical school background so the clinical content is accurate as well as accessible.
