WORK SAMPLE

myCongress

My Congress is a native iOS app that allows constituents to easily connect and follow members of congress.

OVERVIEW

Nobody should be forced to watch cable news to get their poltical information. Thats why I partnered with Scott from Objective Apps to further develop MyCongress. Prior to my involvement, the app was iPad only and while it had a loyal base in the education market the functaility was rather limited.

MY ROLE:
Product Co-owner
Lead Product Design

HOW IT WORKS

Begin by easily finding out who your local representatives are. We created several ways to navigate through and find representatives. The most useful is based on geo-locations allowing users to find and save their reps with a tap on the button. Users can also find by search, state, or chamber.

REPRESENTATIVES

Using an open source government API we were able to display nearly all congressional activity from voting to commitee involvment.

LET'S CONNECT

I’m always interested in meeting kind, talented people who are passionate about what they do. Notice how I put kind in front of talented? It’s kind of a big deal to me. 😉
