Aftercare is a platform supporting digital sex workers in understanding and protecting their content online.
Developed through a human-centred design process, the project explores digital rights, online safety, and content ownership. My role focused on UX and prototyping across web and mobile experiences.
The project began by exploring digital legacy before evolving into a broader investigation around digital permanence and online content ownership within sex work.
Digital sex workers often lack accessible tools and support to help manage their content and navigate online spaces safely.
Exploring structure, hierarchy, and early navigation flow.
Refining layout systems, interactions, and responsive navigation through user testing.
User tests highlighted the importance of accesibility on mobile devices.
Creating a softer, approachable interface centred around clarity and accessibility.
Designing the interactive experience for Aftercare meant thinking carefully about how someone might feel navigating this kind of platform. The goal was to make legal rights, safety information, and community resources feel immediately accessible without being dense or clinical. Every interaction was considered with that emotional context in mind, from the way content is layered and revealed, to how the navigation guides users through what can be a vulnerable and unfamiliar space.
A responsive platform designed to educate and support digital sex workers through clear navigation and accessible resources.
The final experience prioritises user confidence, safety, and greater awareness around digital content ownership.
This project strengthened my understanding of how thoughtful UX decisions can shape trust, safety, and accessibility within digital spaces. Working through multiple stages of prototyping and user testing reinforced the importance of designing experiences that feel supportive for users navigating sensitive topics.
