An interdisciplinary designer and innovator whose work centers on a crucial question: how can technology nurture rather than diminish what makes us uniquely human? At Vibe Control, they developed neuromodulation float tanks for cognitive health, recognizing that as lifespans extend, we must actively protect our capacity for clear thinking and presence. Their work at Pratt Institute's Streetscape Lab imagined NYC's streetlamps as key to retrofitting EV charging infrastructure in a complex city, allowing bidirectional clean energy—preserving the sidewalk's role as a space for human connection. Their research into developmental plasticity reveals how childhood experiences shape human maturation, while their pioneering work integrating industrial design with generative AI aims to put AI in the hands of craftspeople rather than craftspeople in the hands of AI. A Techstars alum and serial founder, they've raised over $8M in funding for ventures including the LynQ smart compass (Time Magazine's Best Inventions 2018) and a headlamp that automatically dims when you look at people, preserving the magic of the dark. Whether developing recursive geodesic structures for gigaton-scale carbon capture or investigating the timing of human development, their work demonstrates how technological innovation, guided by deep respect for human experience, can help us flourish in an increasingly artificial world.
