I spent my time at the University of British Columbia studying Cognitive Systems at UBC where I was able to mix my interest in technology and human behaviour together. I enjoy using design/research as a medium that bridges technology and people together. Translating complex ideas into something that feels natural and inviting.
Some particular areas of interest lately are data, AI, fashion, architecture, prediction markets, tennis, bouldering, film, cafes and fish. (Yes I have a lot of interests)
