2024-25

Designed the end-to-end product for one of the first platforms to bring cross-chain lending into a single interface.

Launched successfully; the company later wound down due to runway.

/The Challenge/

Synonym let users supply collateral on one chain and borrow assets on others- no bridging- powered by Wormhole CCTP. That technical innovation created UX problems single-chain DeFi never faces.

Users had to reason about positions across multiple networks at once, understand how any action moved their liquidation price and position health, and track transactions that don't settle instantly (cross-chain txns stay in-flight for minutes).

/Key Decisions/

We organized the interface to meet users where they were at.

Market Overview as command center: One screen doing two jobs — market-level dashboard analytics and a full transaction interface. A Supply / Withdraw / Borrow / Repay tab group drove different states of a single action card containing network selection, asset selection, and speed settings (Fast vs. Standard), while surfacing the liquidation/health impact of a transaction before the user committed to it. In-flight transaction sidebar: Because settlement isn't immediate, I designed a separate, expand/minimize sidebar to communicate pending cross-chain transaction status — a problem single-chain products don't have to solve. Multi-state activity & wallet system: The activity panel handled a genuinely hard range of states — pending relays, liquidations, multi-chain action labels, governor-held assets — clearly enough that users could trust it.
