Handle the initial prototype meetings with the clients to shows case wireframes and define use-cases of the app. Develop the app in both Android and iOS platforms together with my team.

Between the period of June and July I developed several applications as a freelancer for clients from Canada and Australia, offering a range of services including user research, usability testing, wire-framing and prototyping. I've enjoyed setting up and running my own business and learned a lot about networking, budgeting and negotiation with clients.
