Software Engineer
Homeowners association management has long relied on manual, time-consuming processes and scattered communication tools. These inefficiencies make it difficult to track dues, manage invoices, and maintain accurate financial records—leading to delays, errors, and frustrated communities.
With over 502,000 units managed and 92% positive customer reviews, PayHOA has become the #1 choice for homeowner associations—proving that a well-designed, user-focused platform can transform a traditionally manual industry.
At PayHOA, I worked as a Product Designer, collaborating with stakeholders to align on goals, map user pain points, and design the initial experience from concept to launch. I created wireframes, developed a scalable design system, and conducted usability testing to ensure clarity and ease of use for non-technical users.
