This is an app I worked on with some friends at Cornell aimed at improving communications between coaches, students, and parents in tennis clubs. One of my friends in the group is passionate about that and initiated the idea.

This was my first experience working on an app as part of a team, rather than individually. I could focus on the design and frontend development while my teammates focused on the backend development, which was nice. This was also the first time I was shipping an app to potential customers, so I ensured that my work was top-notch. I learned a lot about fetching and loading data efficiently and concurrently, which was very useful. We worked really well as a team, and we ended up making a very good product!

However, as entrepreneurs, we were a bit naive. We didn't do much market research or user interviews, so upon releasing the app, we didn't get much traction. So, we decided to go back to the drawing board and instead design an app specific to tennis clubs' needs rather than a catch-all social network. After showing our designs to some clubs, we received generally positive feedback, and were ready to develop!

Well…not quite. We are now, in January 2023, realizing that our product is a bit too niche and will require too much customization for each club. So now, we are thinking of other entrepreneurial ideas. I'll keep you posted!
