"Of course! Let me outline a general approach and ask questions along the way to see if any one path makes more sense to follow.
On my general approach: I think it's important to start with a strategic goal or purpose the museum is trying to accomplish with this product. That way we have a north star. From there I'll identify a couple user types we could solve for. Once aligned, I can drill down to potential pain points and solutions of different magnitude. How does that agenda sound?

"To answer this, I will focus my efforts on explaining the most common type of API used in most modern software development applications - the REST API. For the purpose of simplicity, I will also keep the topics of Authorization and Authentication out of the mix.
In essence, an API is a group of logic that takes in a specific set of inputs and responds with a specific set of outputs. This is analogous to going to a drive-thru and placing an order for a meal.
