About Me

My name is Giavanni Swanger and I am an Information Technology & Informatics student at Mercer University. My academic interests focus on systems design, workflow optimization, and technology solutions that support real-world environments.

Through both coursework and professional experience in veterinary settings, I have developed a strong interest in designing systems that improve efficiency, communication, and team coordination. My capstone project, VetSync, combines my technical education with my experience in the veterinary field to explore digital solutions that support veterinary clinic operations.

About the Project

VetSync is a conceptual digital workflow system designed to improve organization and communication in veterinary clinics. Veterinary teams operate in fast-paced environments where missed updates, inefficient task coordination, and fragmented communication can impact both staff productivity and patient care.

This project explores how a thoughtfully designed digital platform could improve task visibility, streamline clinic operations, and enhance collaboration among veterinary staff members.
