Jam

In September 2023, Spotify launched Jam, a personalized listening session for any group. With Jam, listeners can choose the music together with a shared queue, invite friends, and get recommendations for their group. 

As part of the product team that developed the initial idea, I spent over a year designing features and content experiences for Jam. We optimized the product for remote and in-person listeners, as well as small and large groups. We designed a range of experiences for listeners who want to manually queue each song and listeners who want to get recommendations from Spotify. Now, Jam is available for all Spotify uses globally, making it easier for people to listen together everywhere.

Blend

Blend is Spotify’s shared social listening experience, which generates playlists based on all of their tastes. People can create Blends with different groups of friends, or with their favorite artists. When we initially scaled the Blend experience, I was the content designer working on the end to end language. I then became the product designer for Blend, working on new features to make the holistic experience more customizable.
