Imagine trying to travel in the post-COVID era. Do I need to be vaccinated? Is quarantine mandatory? At the time of this Hackathon, the world was still recovering from COVID, and travel had been complicated with a myriad of ever-changing COVID-related restrictions. Meet Journey, an app that seeks to present all the information you need in order to travel in the post-COVID era.
​
Our Key Goals:
-
Provide a clear break-down of COVID-19 restrictions and visa requirements, as well as the ability to keep track of them through a checklist
-
Allow users to find and schedule COVID tests and embassy appointments, and even ask questions to employees themselves
​
My Key Contributions:​
-
iteratively designed and prototyped 30% of Journey's functionalities and screens using Figma
-
wrote marketing materials intentionally, crafting a story of our design for the intended audience (including competition pitch)
