I worked for Transact Carbon for 6 months starting in January 2012 during that time I helped test their API, made them a website, a prototype game and a prototype Android app. Both prototypes were shown to investors and received positive feedback. Due to my short time at the company, I didn’t get time to complete these projects. While I worked at Transact Carbon my boss also helped me improve my business skills by allowing me to present to potential investors and pitch new ideas.
