PROUDEST MOMENT:
My proudest moment at Interaxon was the creation of Muse meditation programs. The challenge that the company was facing was the retention rate of their Muse product. After engaging with the end users, I realized that they needed a structured plan to follow. I along with my colleagues created Muse meditation programs, which are 3 to 6 week programs that provided weekly topics to focus on, tips and goals (e.g. number of minutes to meditate with Muse headband) to follow. When we piloted it, the retention rate and user engagement increased tremendously.
