My Story
The Future
I am currently studying Design Engineering with a concentration in Human Behavior and Multi-stakeholder Research and Human Biology at Stanford University. Growing up in cold Minnesota winters, I came to California to pursue my passions in storytelling and healing.
This journey led me to Stanford, where I dove into the world of Biodesign, Health, Health Technology and Sustainability. At Stanford, I've had the incredible opportunity to explore different areas of design, shaping each medium to tell compelling stories and be used as a force for impactful change. My design is driven by empathy, holding people in my hands and heart in all the work I do as a human-centered designer. I deeply believe in the power of creative initiative and enlightened self-interest to drive positive change.​​​
Looking ahead, my goal is to support and empower companies and organizations through technological and production development as a designer. Also, ensuring that the products and experiences I design are accessible to the most vulnerable populations. Through this, I hope to make a meaningful impact on how communities connect, communicate, and thrive within the realms of healthcare and education.
