The Wildchama project was a transformative experience that allowed me to grow as a designer and a professional.
This project deepened my understanding of balancing complexity with simplicity, the power of gamification, and the importance of designing with empathy for the target audience.
I also learned the importance of taking ownership of my work while collaborating effectively with stakeholders. This experience sharpened my problem-solving skills, adaptability, and ability to manage end-to-end design flows independently.
In the end, the app achieved its goal of being a fun, inclusive, and supportive platform, offering users a unique space to connect, share, and grow.
