Shiri

Founder & Developer

• Created a mobile application that establishes a peer-to-peer communication platform for African farmers. The Shiri platform allows farmers to access resources, suppliers and vendors using their mobile phone. As farmers use Shiri, they upload data about their livestock and crops which Shiri then turns into real time analyses of the macro food production system. By modeling local food resources, Shiri enables a grass roots system that diagnoses and addresses food surpluses and shortages. • Developed the User Experience (UX) design for the application. • Developed the prototype application using the Ionic Framework. • Semi-finalist in the Draper Competition for Collegiate Women Entrepreneurs.
