Idea Lists

Strategic Challenge

Customers and influencers struggled to curate and share product collections. Existing wishlists lacked flexibility or inspiration.

My Role

I co-led a design sprint with the Interesting Finds team to explore new list paradigms:

  • Reframed wishlists from “personal utility” → “shareable inspiration.”

  • Positioned curated collections as a traffic and conversion lever.

  • Enabled designers to test bold list-building interactions quickly..

Execution

  • Built curated list templates with smart search suggestions.

  • Prototyped sharing and inspiration-focused interactions.

  • Ran iterative tests with influencers to validate use cases.

Outcomes & Impact

  • Launched Idea Lists, empowering influencers to curate and share.

  • Became a building block of the Amazon Influencer Program.

  • Improved product discovery and drove engagement.

Strategic Takeaways

  • Customer curation = commerce inspiration.

  • Design sprints can unlock transformational features when paired with strategic reframing.
