For terraFlow, a biotech product in the flow cytometry space, I helped take the product from proof of concept to v1 – defining features, creating a design system, designing the app, and building clickable prototypes for their dev team. Working with co-founders Arielle and Dan, we translated a complex data analysis process into an app that anyone in a lab could use without deep flow cytometry expertise. The final touch was redesigning their brand, giving them a cohesive look and feel to help them disrupt their industry.

I was asked by daily.co co-founder Kwin to help him turn his detailed 40-page white paper into a printed booklet. I created a flexible layout that allowed for code snippets, dense footnotes, and illustrations of technical concepts — plus a few easter eggs the engineering readership will surely enjoy discovering and decoding.

I also worked on a broad range of personal projects – here the highlights.

I started teaching at SVA — two courses: Designer as Creator in Interaction Design and Mapping and Visualization Design in Design for Social Innovation. It was fun and challenging, and I'm proud of the ideas and products my students brought to life.

The Designer as Creator course grew out of a collection of manifestos I'm building, launched under makepublic.org. I'd love to one day publish them as a book.

I leaned into building products with Claude Code, taking my technical abilities to another level: Wasup (a macOS native app to help manage WhatsApp groups), Curious Events (an event aggregator), Daily Pods (a Spotify daily playlist app), The World You Want (a place to share and come together behind a shared vision), a bunch of macOS automations, and am currently building a contact manager that unifies all your communication by person.

On the community front, I continued to grow Curious, my community that brings people together around cultural events, talks, and shows. Among the many, many get-togethers, the ones that stood out for me were the Film Night Shorts, Scientific Controversies, and the MTA Memorabilia Sale.

I launched Signals, a discussion series where we explore a single theme – like trust, play or reinvention – over four weeks through open and provocative prompts.

I hosted a number of Future of _ Dinners where I brought together a group of people working in and thinking about a topic – AI, education, or the economy – for a thoughtful exploration of where we are today and where we might be heading.

I also got crafty: I 3D-printed a double buckle to create a strap that holds my backpack to my rolling suitcase, and sewed together a "Rimowa strap-on" backpack harness for that same  suitcase.

And I finally started dreaming up an immersive theater play called The Frequency.

There are plenty more updates, but I'll leave you with those. As I head into 2026, I'm looking to join a team in a creative product role — somewhere I can bring all of this together: the systems thinking, the community building, the designing and realizing of ideas. If you know of something that might be a good fit, or just want to catch up over coffee or a call, I'd love to hear from you.
