Big ideas, real impact.
The launch of OnCAFE was one of the most exciting projects I’ve worked on. Through collaboration with talented engineering, product, and design, we were able to make Hanwha’s vision of launching their first access control solution come to life.

Phase 1: Design Unification
Hanwha has several products: a video management software, cloud access, and sales portals. While OnCAFE’s designs were initially intended to have a more modern look and feel, we decided that, for consistency and recognition of the business purposes, it’s in our best interest to unify our designs into a single design system. Here’s an example:

Phase 2: Feature Polishing (AI)
The next step was to ensure all features were polished, tested, and ready for launch. One feature in particular that needed polishing but could not make the deadline was our AI scheduling feature. After testing with some users at a trade show, we decided to put the feature in BETA to gather more feedback.
Coming soon: AI Improvements!
With the feedback we’re receiving, the designers, product management, and I brainstormed and decided to go with a wizard approach, where the user gets tailored questions based on their responses in each step. This is in progress, so more content on the way!
Phase 3: Launch & Analysis (in progress)
OnCAFE launched in September of 2025. We are gathering some insights at the moment and based on that, will continue to make improvements. We are working on several exciting new features coming soon to OnCAFE! Stay tuned.
