Jeff Bargmann has been working in software for a little more than a decade and is now leveraging that experience with his own mobile start-up,
Photoful.
The Ann Arbor-based company’s mobile app helps users exert more control over their photo albums by making things like tagging, browsing and organizing easier. It got its start as an attempt to create a better photo gallery app but Bargmann soon realized the back-end of the app is what made it popular.
“I figured out that the organizational aspect is what people were missing from their lives,” Bargmann says. “So I relaunched it as Photoful and it has been well-received.”
Bargmann is the one-man team behind Photoful. He is doing it as a side project while he is pursuing his MBA at the University of Michigan on a part-time basis. He expects to graduate in December with an MBA in strategy and entrepreneurship. Bargmann plans to keep developing the Photoful platform and see how far the startup will take him.
