I competed in the 2014 Branchfood Urban Food hackathon. I teamed up with three enthusiastic strangers to tackle a problem related to food in urban environments. As the sole UX designer on the team, I made it my priority to advocate for low-income users, who I felt stood the most to gain from solving problem affecting urban environments.

 

We produced our project through a 48 hour process of ideation, research, and design. We were awarded the Grand Prize, which included $5,000, coworking space and legal fees. My team and I are currently in the research and development phase of bringing our project to life.

 

What follows is the presentation I created for the hackathon judging panel.
