This app is meant to give entertainers tools that an agency may not. These tools give entertainers more transparency into potential events, giving them the choice to accept jobs or not based on how comfortable they are. Go Glow offers more privacy for their contact information, accountability to both parties by collecting reviews and identification, and cuts out the middle man. This allows the entertainer to be in control of their work and collect fees before they show up to an event, which is rare in the current market. Go Glow connects entertainers with security services to bolster their safety for an event they feel in control of. Most important of all, Go Glow was created for safety, financial control and personal agency.

Did you know that the human eye is more powerful than a supercomputer?

Prompted with the creation of a designed deliverable based upon a fun fact, I created Chromeye, a board game that puts human vision to the test. Upon researching the key differences between image processing in the human eye versus in computers, I discovered that computers, no matter how powerful they may be, often struggle to identify images in fragments or out of context. Humans have lifetimes of trained experience in object recognition that computers are unable to replicate, purely because of the decades of experience. Chromeye uses this knowledge to create fragmented images of environments, or our physical contexts, that players compete to put together before other players. However, there is a twist! Each player wears a pair of colored glasses, making their view of the game’s cards entirely unique from other players. So, are you ready to see the world through a different lens?

Created in collaboration with Green Tree Schools, we designed a system for travel training to address safety, preparing for transportation, and the travel process itself. This program focuses on promoting independence and confidence in transportation amongst high school students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnoses. We designed a series of interactive worksheets that can be implemented in classrooms for students with ASD to simulate the process of traveling on SEPTA. We also created onboarding booklets to help teachers, parents, and other guardians guide students through the process of navigation apps such as Transit, Google Maps, Apple Maps, and the SEPTA app. Our main goal was to provide resources with customizable features to meet the diverse needs of users.
