创业的起点,是我自己也需要。It started with something I needed.
我是尔湾 Crean Lutheran High School 的一名高中女生,也是学校网球队的一员。网球是我的爱好。尔湾有很多比赛,但查赛程、看成绩、找评级,常常要在不同网站之间来回翻找。I’m a student at Crean Lutheran High School in Irvine and a member of the school tennis team. I love tennis. There are plenty of matches here, but finding schedules, results and ratings often means jumping between websites.
我创立 Hitup Tennis,是想让这些信息真正好用起来。把 USTA 和 ITT 页面里分散的数据整理清楚,让球员更方便地了解自己的表现、关注评级变化,也能从不同角度看排名。少一点翻网站的麻烦,多一点比赛的乐趣。I founded Hitup Tennis to make that information easier to use. I want to bring scattered USTA and ITT data together so players can understand their performance, follow rating changes and explore rankings. Less time searching, more enjoyment from the game.
这份想法也延伸到了球场之外:阅读和听书能不能放在一起?生活里的文字和附件能不能好好保存?坐在电脑前太久,能不能有一只小猫来提醒休息?从网球到日常生活,每一款产品都围绕一个具体问题展开。That idea extends beyond the court. Could reading and listening share one space? Could everyday notes and attachments stay intact? Could a little cat remind us to step away from the computer? From tennis to daily life, each product focuses on a specific problem.
还有开市省钱,是我为妈妈写的省钱 App。我想帮她把 Costco 优惠、常买商品和小票整理到一起,留意买过的东西有没有新的降价线索。不是为了买更多,而是让本来就需要的购物少一点麻烦。Then there is wincos, a savings app I made for my mom. I wanted to bring Costco offers, familiar items and receipts together, and help her notice possible price drops after a purchase. Not to buy more, but to make the shopping she already needs a little easier.
