Goals:

• reevaluate layout and structure of home/search screen of Gather app
• how can I better design the main page to meet user needs?
• build out basic layout of product search results pages with minified search bar
• figure out marketing strategy for myself, what is the competition like?

Issues covered/Response from advisor:

• continue to push myself and communicate my skills more confidently
• “A story consists of a beginning, a muddle, and an end. The same often goes for a career. The more you can unravel the muddle in the middle the better you will fare. But circumstances often conspire to keep it as muddle.”

Goals for next week:

• rework my prototype to show my new wireframe layout and goals
• continue to evaluate if my home/search screen is practical and usable, conduct basic user testing
• build out the remainder of the pages for my prototype
