The Challenge
In collaboration with Unitus Credit Union and the Urban League of Portland, FTSI asked the question: How do we connect Black Oregonians with financial services and resources?
The name “Azie”
From the Azie Case Study webpage: “Named “Azie” after Azie Taylor Morton, the only African American woman to hold the position of Treasurer of the United States, the new mobile app aims to foster financial and housing stability while creating and sustaining generational wealth for underserved individuals and their families.“

Audit of the App Before Building the Design System
The brand system had not been created for Azie, so I had to backtrack and do a full audit on the app to create the design system (seen below).
