Design physical computing and other STEAM-based projects and create step-by-step instructions for kids and educators to introduce the basics of robotics, circuits, and coding

 

One of two game designers collaborating with the Social Emotional Technology Lab at UC Santa Cruz and the Game Academy to design a STEM-based live action role-playing game to engage girls with STEM; responsible for designing projects using the BBC micro:bit

 

 

Worked in a team of three to transition Eiratech robot from prototype to manufacture by preparing CAD models, creating documentation, and designing and carrying out tests 

Assisted with concept development, CAD modeling, and research for a new system

 

Responsible for the mechanical design of an EEG system that integrates with a race helmet for measuring driver focus and fatigue (patent pending)

 

Assisted with agency pitch decks through illustration, storyboarding, creating 3D CAD models and renders, technical research, and copywriting

​

Worked in a small, multidisciplinary team to design themed games for the annual FIRST Robotics Competition, including designing gameplay and story

 

Designed mechanical structures and components for the game field, from initial concept generation, creating sketches and CAD models, building and testing prototypes, to creating final engineering drawings and sourcing components

​

Drove the visual design of the game fields to match the annual theme by creating concept art, directing the engineering team’s technical implementation of the visual design, and creating all final artwork using a mix of 2D digital art and 3D renderings

​

The games were viewed internationally at 40+ events, with 90k+ students participating in the competition annually and over 30,000 guests at championship events

 

Worked on soft good products using CAD and numerical geometric models, as well as creating prototypes, and designing and performing technical tests (cannot disclose details)
