Showing the work at Zūm’s Mobility Summit

In April, Zūm held its Connected Mobility Summit. Our CTO ran the product demos, and I helped him build every one of them.

I loved it. Most of my work ends in a review or a test session. A demo is different. We picked the story, the order and the moment it clicks, and then I watched it land in the room.

It was a chance to show the Connected Mobility Experience as one system: the yard’s view of the morning, the driver’s tablet, and the parent waiting at the stop.

The marketing team spent two months on a photoshoot. For the demos I was building, I retouched many of those photos in Nano Banana, so the tablets and screens in them showed the real product.

Product design usually stops where marketing starts. This time I got to do both.
