INTRODUCTION
The Team
Our team primarily consisted of students from my college, most of whom were my juniors. We brought together a mix of skills, a graphic designer for visuals, Android and web developers for execution, and a machine learning enthusiast exploring advanced possibilities. As the most experienced member, I led this cross-functional group, ensuring we built something realistic, scalable, and grounded in real-world constraints. Our goal was to collaborate like an actual product team, not just a college project group.
As the sole UX designer, I owned the end-to-end product experience from research and user insights to information architecture, wireframes, UI, prototypes, and developer handoffs. I guided the visual direction alongside our graphic designer and ensured every design decision aligned with student and merchant needs while staying technically feasible for the team. As project manager, my responsibility was to keep the team aligned, remove roadblocks, prioritize the right features, and maintain momentum. I coordinated with developers, planned timelines, balanced constraints, and ensured everyone worked harmoniously. My focus was building a culture of clarity and collaboration while guiding juniors through a realistic, industry-style workflow.
