Approach:
DogHerd a pet project of mine forced me to become resourceful. I used “Guerilla UX” for research which took me to local dog parks pouring cups of coffee in exchange for interviews.
I researched various websites searching for keywords such as “dog-friendly”, “community”, and “happy”, to find what characteristics I wanted to have for the look and feel of the app. With this, I created mood boards that displayed the tone of what DogHerd represents.
Beer Buddies!
Project Overview:
Beer Buddies! is a school project from the Fall of 2019. It is a collaboration with a few of my classmates that creates a whimsical yet educational view of different types of beers and reviews.
Role: Team Leader, Scrum Master.
Toolkit:Adobe XD, GitHub, Brackets, Slack, CSS, HTML5.
Project: Create a website designed to educate visitors on what type of beers there are and what containers they should be presented in.
Approach:
When we identified who are our targeted audience was, we found that who were trying to reach was guys like us. By that, we meant those uneducated schmucks that drink a Miller-lite in a goblet. We set about to create a playful website that could be juxtapositioned against a pretentiousness of wine sommeliers.
As the Team Leader I made all the approvals and controlled our Github repository, making sure there were no conflicts while setting timelines for our sprints.
