I am a Chicagoland native motivated by finding joy in change.
I am currently pursuing my Master's of Human-Computer Interaction at Georgia Tech. I volunteer for the program's media team by leading the HC-Hive podcast, which involves writing scripts, producing and editing audio, and planning the podcast schedule. I was our first guest on our interview series - take a. listen below:
This is a video prototype of a project where we created a museum-like interactive system using Arduino and Max MSP. I led the interaction design of the installation, laser cut and assembled the installation, and planned, wired, and assembled the Arduino components of the overall system.
Who doesn't like to laugh? I am known for my creative thinking and comedic timing. I find that humor and improvisation inspires my ideas and perspective. Here is a recent example of that humor put to use, in a design fiction piece that was meant to prompt viewers to reflect on their consumption of microplastics and influencers. I storyboarded, shot, wrote, and edited in this video, and I led creative direction for the project, including the designs featured in the reel.
