Small applications were great practice, but I wasn't drawn to software development to build multiple test applications. Flavors was the first real-world project I brainstormed and fell in love with.

With an entrepreneurial mindset, I sought to create something that could provide value and change lives — similar to what Airbnb did to vacation stays or what Uber did to transportation, but for food. Exchanging food for money is one of the most primal acts there is, and a marketplace to facilitate this would bring users opportunity for additional income. A surplus in sellers would create competition in the market and decreased prices, ultimately being a plus for both sellers and buyers.

This is a scalable passion project I hope to continue tinkering with and perfecting.
