Groove Money

Groove is a financial habit-building platform that helps young adults achieve lasting financial success.

The Problem

With finances, young adults aren’t just stressed—they’re overwhelmed.

The Opportunity

Groove Money saw an opportunity to create something different: A compassionate guide for their financial journey. They needed something more than another online class or suit of tools—they wanted to know ‘why should I?’

User Pain Points

01

Financial Illiteracy

02

No Financial Habits

03

Not Sure Where to Start

They needed personal guidance, not a rigid track to follow.

What I did

Clarified the Problem

Sifting through the stress and anxiety, they needed insight—not just a budgeting tool. Other products focused on tools and features—not the ‘why I should’.

Set Small Steps

The biggest impact comes from small behavioral changes. We created a system of thoughtful mentoring that adapted to each user’s journey—leveraging the wealth of educational content the client had produced.

Documented Product Growth

After years of evolution and client-driven initiatives, Groove had truly flourished. I remapped the product to help visualize the changes—and the areas of opportunity for future initiatives.

What I Learned

Education doesn’t have to come off as a lecture—because that’s like talking at someone. Focusing on the reasons, not results, of similar financial tools creates more of a personal connection.
