PROFILE
I’m a final year creative design and research student at Parsons School of Design, graduating in May 2020. I took part in numerous integrative research and design projects. In particular, I have partnered with UNICEF on their Digital Public Goods (DPG) project, where I researched incentives for individuals to contribute open-source software which can improve the planning, delivery and monitoring of health services. I’m currently pursuing roles in research & development as well as the advertising industry.
