Paper Desktop

Dropbox Paper

I inherited a nascent Paper Desktop initiative and helped grow it into a more capable product around activation, search, and a more flexible desktop workflow.

Open prototype

Problem

The app needed to expand its features and user base without losing the clarity that made Paper feel approachable.

Contribution

Designed desktop-first document and collaboration patterns.
Balanced writing, planning, and lightweight project structure in one surface.
Prototyped calmer detail and organization behaviors.

Impact

Expanded the desktop product and its user base
Stronger activation and search foundation
More flexible workflow model
