Starkville, Ms

At VAAM, I was in charge of the direction and vision of our product. My biggest role involved versatility. I designed the entire app’s UI myself by learning Sketch on the fly. The solving of problems in multiple areas (Business Strategy, UI, Financials) called for a lot of learning on my part, but I enjoy the brainstorming and organizing involved with problem-solving and decision-making.Ultimately, we were able to develop a fully functional mobile application, gain a relatively large user base, and execute smart marketing plans.Our application was written entirely in javascript using React.JS & Node.js. Javascript was selected for a multitude of reasons, the main being the versatile nature of the language! For our servers, we are utilized the services of Firebase to harbor user profile data as well as saved data from successful activity on the application.
