Lance Craft
Lance Craft is a dedicated marketplace app for the event industry that connects planners, florists, and designers with specialized freelancers. I built the application to replace ad-hoc social media messages and group texts with structured hiring, communication, and scheduling workflows.

Challenge
Event businesses rely heavily on short-notice freelance labor, but traditional hiring happened through fragmented channels like direct messages and group texts. This unstructured process led to missed communication, lost leads, and coordination friction during fast-paced event setup.
Solution
I built a mobile marketplace application that streamlines discovery, direct communication, and gig management for event professionals. The platform consolidates localized opportunity feeds, profile reputation, and messaging into a single interface.
