Community Leadership

Building inclusive spaces for creativity and collaboration

  • Building Communities That Scale

    Since 2018, I've grown the International Mother Language Celebration from 12 students to 400+ annual participants. This grassroots community building demonstrates my ability to create organic engagement without traditional marketing. When people become co-creators rather than attendees, growth happens naturally.

  • Adaptive Learning Design

    I prototype learning experiences that adapt to user context, not the other way around. From hardware prototypes like the Thermocolor Wheel to AI-powered tools that convert lectures into podcasts for commuters, I design systems that recognize users need different formats at different times. Testing shows 73% of students use multiple formats when given the choice.

  • Empowering Through Representation

    I create products and experiences that help underrepresented youth see themselves as future innovators. Through fashion, workshops, and visual storytelling, I'm building pathways for girls to envision themselves in STEM, sports, and leadership. Because representation isn't just about equity, it's about unlocking human potential.
