    In my interaction design practice, I have learned that collaboration involves balancing diverse perspectives of teams, clients, users, and even the technology itself to a single goal. The experiences I have designed span a range of projects across different media channels, devices, and scenarios, from inviting passersby to design a Nike shoe in real time on a 23-story Times Square billboard to updating Lego's virtual building software interface; from redesigning Sesame Workshop's math games for preschoolers to exploring applications for an interactive fabric developed by Google. My design approach emphasizes storytelling and interface, drawing on my art practice in literature and interactive performance. A commitment to integrating technological and creative practice led me to a part-time teaching position at Parsons' Design and Technology MFA program, and NYU's Integrated Design and Media master's program.
