ASRS Pension Estimator

Role

Challenge

Retirement planning literacy benefits from interactive exploration, but official benefit quotes live elsewhere. Learners need a clear educational model with transparent assumptions.

Approach

Built a guided wizard with live what-if controls and Vega-Lite charts so users can explore retirement age, service, and pay tradeoffs—clearly framed as educational planning, not an official ASRS quote.

Outcomes

A tested, chart-driven educational estimator that demonstrates product craft in service of clear learner decision-making.

Overview
