Next Up — Athlete Exposure & Recruitment
Next Up is a sports platform designed to help athletes of all ages showcase their skills, gain exposure, and discover new opportunities. Through athlete profiles, game clips, schedules, and a discovery feed, the app connects players with coaches and recruiters while helping overlooked talent get seen.
My Role & Design Process
I developed the Next Up concept and designed the app in Figma, from the initial wireframes and mood board to the user flows and interactive prototype. Through surveys and user testing, I explored how athletes find opportunities and where the recruiting process can improve. As an athlete myself, I created Next Up because I know how important sports can be and have seen talented players get overlooked because of their location or lack of connections. My goal was to design a platform that gives athletes more exposure, more opportunities, and greater control over their athletic future.
