Our team was able to meet with Tierra Urbana, and our project sponsor for our capstone. Tierra Urbana is a start up in the Dominican Republic.  They connect their clients with composting services to pick-up food waste, process, and return nutrient rich compost to their clients.\u00a0This makes composting accessible to the average person as they return a proportional amount of compost post-processing to the user. Here is the link to their website <a href=\"https:\/\/tierraurbana.do\/\">https:\/\/tierraurbana.do\/<\/a> I really like their business model, and it has been really great to get to know them, and to get started on our project. It has been an exciting couple weeks!<br><br>So far , we have still been in the planning page. Right now we are in the process of finalizing our UI\/UX design choices and also our choices for our tech stack. I have personally been working on the design side of things, making a working prototype in figma. This has been really rewarding as it feels like we&#8217;re making really critical choices and our final product is beginning to take shape! I have never been part of a development process such as this, building a complete application at every step into the final product, and it is exciting to start to begin the work for it.<br><br>As far as my progress with time management, it has also been quite a busy few weeks. I have also been sick, which as has added to the difficulty of my schedule. I was forced to move around work and personal obligations, but still had time to complete work for my classes. I have been working on 50 minute work to 10 minute break schedules and it has helped me work for longer I believe. It is hard to maintain this schedule and race through, but in the long run it really helps me get a better return on my time investment.<br><br>I&#8217;m looking forward to the next few weeks and staying on top of all this work! I have been applying to jobs, interviewing on top of everything so my schedule is completely overloaded. It will be a huge relief when everything is finished this term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lot&#8217;s has happened since last post!
