Solution to Design Challenge
After completing this project, I learned a lot of important lessons. .... Our subteam ran into a few challenges along the team. One of them was that we struggled to maintain a steady form of communication considering that we were all on different schedules. Additionally, we experienced a problem . However, I overcame these issues . Overall, this was a succesful project and I gained more knowledge about
