My Approach
As part of the ToldYa team, my role focused on enhancing the app’s user experience and supporting technical operations. I contributed to the design of intuitive wireframes and interactive prototypes using Figma, helping to create an interface that makes complex match data easy and fun to explore. On the technical side, I assisted in asset management and supported backend operations, including Amazon AWS server management, to ensure reliability during peak usage.

Identifying Unique Challenges
Balancing real-time sports data with an approachable user interface was a major challenge. My contributions included helping organize and present live match schedules, prediction features, and results in a way that remained clear and engaging for users.
Resolving Complex Problems
