Atlanta, Ga.— Local Menus was a personal endeavor that I had built with Ruby on Rails for the restaurant industry. I designed and developed all of the frontend materials and coordinated the creation of the backend with hired rails developers.
My role(s) on this project included: Designer, Front-End Developer, Strategist.
The website was geared towards providing couples with the ability to keep track of the dates they’ve been on or want to go on. Everything was inspired by the metaphor of using slips of paper in a clear, plastic bag as a decision-making tool.
