The Design Sprint

The first week has been quite challenging to go through. As a team we went through an intense exercise called “The Design Sprint”.  The sprint is a five-day process for answering critical business questions through design, prototyping, and testing ideas with customers. I have learned a lot this week about domestic workers, their issues and struggles.  I also learned what is involved in building a mobile application.

The only problem I had was the severe jet lag I experienced. I have been sleeping for only a few hours each night. I am usually wide awake at 3:00 am. This has really impacted me and i hope to adjust and overcome this time zone issue quickly.
