My research practice moves between fieldwork, systems thinking, and material exploration — often grounded in questions of sustainability, cultural continuity, and collaborative design. From community-centered projects like Re-Compost in New York City to climate-focused responses in Quinhagak, Alaska, and critical design proposals such as Movaser, each study reflects a commitment to situated knowledge and interdisciplinary inquiry. This body of work seeks not only to propose solutions but to rethink the frameworks we design within.
