design is more than pretty objects - it is the means of creating alternative futures.
For as long as I remember, I’ve had a love affair with the creative potential of humankind.
This interest started as early as I can remember, and then grew into a multidisciplinary body of knowledge eventually culminating in a BFA from NYU Gallatin in Human Factors. My interests include manufacturing techniques, product design, supply chain, service design, psychology, business strategy, human factors, and more - with a product design focus. For this reason, I’m a natural connector - networking ideas across schools of thought and synthesizing the relationship between human motivation and the tangible products and services. This led me to refine my knowledge with an MA in Sustainable Design from MCAD, where I focused my efforts on research, design and business for social impact. In doing so, I create offerings and services that are beneficial for people, companies and the environment.
I believe we have it in us to create a diverse, just, and positive future
Education and business objectives must center practices that lead to resilience to survive the chaos of a transitioning economy. As leaders, we are trained to see opportunities where there are none, and yet are missing out on the vast untapped potential in products and experiences seeking to engage diverse and inclusive practices.
