We worked this semester to resolve current issues and implement the client's requested functions to the Monroe County Fairgrounds website. The website is the central information hub for the local fairgrounds and the current state of the website has caused frustration for many users. This is a sizable problem for the fairgrounds because the issues inhibit the users from accessing vital information, damaging their experience of interacting with the fairgrounds. We designed a new version of the website, focusing on accessible design, mobile friendliness, and simplicity.

ThriveFinance is a web-based platform that helps students and young adults build real-world financial skills through interactive learning. It combines structured modules, progress tracking, budgeting tools, and guided reflection to create a more engaging and practical experience than passive reading. Users can learn, apply, and monitor their financial habits in one centralized system, making progress visible over time. The platform is designed to turn financial literacy into an active process, empowering users to develop confidence, make informed decisions, and build sustainable money management habits.
