Yad-Yar App to interact with elderlies

How did this happen?
I took on the "Yad-Yar" project with a strong desire to make a difference. Designing an amusement app for seniors felt like the right way to address real-world challenges.
Yad-Yar's mission to combat elderly isolation struck a chord with me, and collaborating with a startup and healthcare experts allowed me to blend design and healthcare insights seamlessly.
