+    ME

I am an interaction designer and researcher finishing my second year of the Human-Computer Interaction Design master's program at Indiana University. Broadly, my work is aimed at informing the design of interactive products and systems that satisfy our more immediate and personal desires related to pleasure, enjoyment, creativity, and meaning, as well as address our longer-term and collective needs related to environmental and social sustainability.
