   Hey Future Lawyer

   Oct 2024 — Present

   Built Hey Future Lawyer to reshape LSAT prep—focusing on core reasoning skills instead of ineffective memorization tactics. After seeing too many students struggle with misguided strategies, we set out to create a platform that teaches the fundamentals the LSAT truly tests—critical reasoning, comprehension, and analytical thinking.I led the development of a fully interactive LSAT testing platform, integrating real-time test simulation, passage highlighting, flexible test-taking options, and live class scheduling. Using Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase, Redis, and PostgreSQL, I built a scalable and engaging experience that puts students first—offering fair pricing and an intuitive learning environment.This isn\'t just another LSAT prep site—it’s a mission-driven project aimed at making high-quality LSAT prep more accessible while ensuring students focus on what really matters.We’re constantly improving, expanding analytics, and enhancing user experience based on real student feedback. Excited for what’s ahead!
