I spent a few weeks thinking about thematic bridges between architecture, apparel and new technologies.

In an imagined near future, physical design of public landscapes have all but disappeared. Virtual reality has replaced physical plants, lawns, and trees. Impacted by starkly economic reasoning, landscapes become plain pavement.

I anticipate fashion acts of rebellion against the impact of virtual reality. One person, dissatisfied with the pixel-perfect, have-it-my-way ubiquity of virtual reality parks, removes their glasses. Before wandering the city, she slips on her own physical greenery.

I am currently the sole UX Designer at Crayon.co. Crayon uses machine learning and big data to provide actionable competitive intelligence to marketing and sales teams. Learn more at: https://www.crayon.co/.

In my design practice, I focus on creating user-centered products. My process involves: creating user profiles to guide engineering teams; imagining and prototyping new user experiences; producing visual art; and integrating business and design strategy.

This past winter, as an adjunct RISD faculty member, I taught an original course titled I, Robot: Pop, Sex, and the Chassis to graduate and undergraduate students.
