How might we provide healthier food options for people in need?
Over 80% of the United State's fresh produce is grown in California, and yet over 25% of San Francisco's population consume diets high in processed foods. Food education is informally passed down through families and people frequently lack the knowledge, skills and access to healthier foods. MealHub is designed to provide affordable and healthy food options.
MealHub is a nonprofit organization promoting the empowerment of healthy eating by offering accessible ready-to-cook meals in low-income areas of San Francisco
I actively participated as part of a design team for Ideo.org and +Acumen's Human Centered Design course on Novoed.com. We interviewed potential users, extreme users and experts in the field, synthesized the information, brainstormed solutions, prototyped, asked for feedback on our prototype and created a fictatious nonprofit organization that would implement our business plan.
