Q’d Up, an Innovative New App for Sharing Spotify Play Lists

When Pete Blangiardi and his friends hang out listening to music in his car, everyone has different songs they want to hear. Selecting and playing what they want to hear next is not only an annoying distraction, it can be a dangerous distraction while driving as well.

It is no surprise that Pete, who is a self-motivated, self-directed problem solver, came up with the idea for developing a new App named Q’d Up to solve the problem. Using the App, friends can create their own group queue, decide together their playlist order and push the music to be played. Q’d Up provides an enhanced, unifying music enjoyment experience with friends.

Pete chose Spotify for the App, because it is popular with students. It reviews the user’s year in music selections, all-time favorite songs, favorite artists, with the seasons and times of year that users listen to their selections.

Pete’s career aspirations include solving real life problems, and creating Q’d Up is an example of a real-world problem that Pete has already solved.

What’s Next:

Pete is looking for a challenging career with autonomy for solving problems. As a self-motivated learner, “I push myself to keep learning and learning, despite its being uncomfortable, I keep at it. The best feeling ever is to keep working on a challenging problem and then be able to solve it.”

Pete’s dream job is to work for Apple, and he has the motivation and discipline to get there. He follows what’s happening at Apple, including familiarizing and teaching himself how to use its newest innovations.

Pete will pursue his career goals with confidence about what’s next, and “Apply everywhere possible, looking forward to real world projects and getting the chance to keep learning and keep growing.”
