About this project

Stork is a B2B wholesale marketplace designed to simplify bulk buying and selling. The existing platforms were cluttered, slow, and not optimized for modern workflows. My goal was to create a clean, efficient, and intuitive experience that helps sellers manage inventory and buyers discover products faster.

This project taught me that buyers care most about speed, so every second saved in the flow matters. I also saw that minimal, well-structured UI works best for data-heavy SaaS products. Overall, focusing on clarity helped users complete tasks faster and improved the product’s usability and impact.
