Project Overview
Worked on a project to digitally incentivize reading in young people, combining user-centered design with mobile development. The goal was to create engaging experiences that would shift reading habits, using Design Thinking to define the problem and Agile Scrum to build the solution.
Contributions
- Developed mobile-oriented applications using Node.js
- Applied Design Thinking principles in user research and co-creation sessions
- Delivered iterative product increments within Agile Scrum cycles
Approach
The project was a good early lesson in the value of starting from user needs before writing code. Design Thinking helped focus the work on what would actually change behavior rather than what was technically possible.
