Hi, I’m McKenna Capener.
I'm a Utah-based UX and visual designer creating brand and product experiences that look beautiful, feel natural, and engage people.
Featured UX Work
Kindred
UX Design • User Research • Figma
An audiobook app designed to make listening more engaging through shared experiences. Through user research, competitive analysis, surveys, and interviews, I identified opportunities to improve retention and connection by helping listeners save meaningful quotes, reflect on what they hear, and share their favorite moments with friends.
Atlas
AI-Assisted Prototyping • User Testing • Figma
A weightlifting app designed to help beginners build confidence and stay consistent by making workout tracking simple. Through user research, rapid prototyping, and AI-assisted design with Figma Make, I created an experience that reduces friction so users can focus on lifting, not logging.
Goodreads Redesign
UX Redesign • Information Architecture • Figma
A redesign focused on making Goodreads easier to navigate and more enjoyable to use. I reimagined the bookshelf system to simplify book organization, improve book tracking, and create a more intuitive book tracking experience.
Care Connect
User Interviews • User Research • Figma
A mobile app designed to bridge communication between working parents and childcare providers through personalized updates and activity tracking. Informed by surveys and interviews with parents, I designed a solution focused on intuitive use for both parents and caregivers.
