This week, I was assigned to create a holiday email newsletter using Mailchimp for one of our clients, “Kept Organic”. It was probably the most challenging thing I had to do so far but I was able to get it together and with my supervisor’s approval they were able to send it out to the people that want it.

I was also assigned to create logo for another client named James B Samuels. We were asked to make the logo have a sense of self discovery and to use a compass as the client is a personal trainer/life coach. I created my first draft of these logos already and they are waiting for review from my supervisor.

The NYC 311 app is an amazingly convenient addition to the app store for New Yorkers. The app serves as an alternative to calling 311 to report something. It has many different features and notifications to inform the user about the status of schools and garbage pickups in your neighborhood.

The app allows you to put in requests to do certain things like report a malfunctioning traffic light or an open manhole that needs to be addressed. It serves as an alternative to calling 311 if you choose.

They have a preset of options that allow you to streamline the process.

Overall, this app is a worthy alternative to calling 311. I believe this is an app worthy to download and wish to be an active member of the NYC community.

ZocDoc

ZocDoc is an excellent app that allows its user to find a doctor near your location. You create your profile on the app and based on your insurance information. The app has many features that allow you to learn about the doctors in your area.

Additionally you can filter out doctors based on your insurance policy, if it is in/out 0f network. You can also filter out what kind of doctor you may need and access the contact information of the doctor you may want to see.

They have a new feature where you can video chat with a doctor if you don’t feel comfortable with an in person visit.

Overall, ZocDoc is an app that I feel should be a part of your app inventory. It is a convient app that allows you to find heathcae professionals no matter where you are.
