I design computational systems for new ways of thinking, making, and playing.
My time at MIT is a collage of research, teaching. art-making, and collecting words.
I'm advised by Erik Demaine in CSAIL, with support from the MIT MAD Design Fellowship, the NSERC Postgraduate Scholarship, and the MIT Stata Family Presidential Fellowship.
My research explores alternative representations of visual and material systems and how they shape what we can imagine and create. I build systems around these representations, inviting users to understand and play with the constraints and possibilities they introduce.
How can we design garments for change and reuse? By reimagining garments as dynamic assemblies rather than static products, Refashion enables users to resize, restyle, and remix their garments on demand.
How can we create constellations with unconventional star arrangements? By representing constellation patterns as mathematical graphs, we gain an alternative language for imagining and creating constellations.
