A personal project to design and build a custom, split ergonomic wireless mechanical keyboard to meet my own user accessibility needs.

A personal proof-of-concept project to digest user research interview transcripts, with large token counts, into a succinct meta-summary and interactive chat using prompt engineering, off-model storage, and the OpenAI API.

Personal experimentation running AI models on desktop for creativity, such as Stable Diffusion XL and Mixtral 8x7b.

Latest vehicle program work at Ford: planning, leading, and synthesizing ideation workshops, creating digital prototype systems, and designing and building full-size modular vehicle prototypes.

Led a design team at Ford to immerse in the life of the customer and define the design strategy for an advanced electric vehicle program across two iterations.

Enhancing human-centered design practice at Ford by advocating for and demonstrating the use of XR design tools, AI image generation, and communicative video.

Led a design team at Ford to develop a compelling, unique experience strategy for the small utility vehicle segment.

Guided a cross-functional consortium at Ford to identify, and follow through on, the experience strategy for a large utility program using physical prototypes, conceptual prototypes, and easily shared video content.

Planned and implemented a robust prototype system architecture for a months-long public autonomous vehicle pizza delivery experience user research pilot program as part of a joint venture between Ford and Domino’s.

Developed a seamless ecosystem demonstration at Ford for an internal executive technology show, including architecture planning, UI development, vehicle interfacing, networking, and supplier component integration.

Cut technician time spent on editing test videos at Lear Corporation dramatically by developing a system and application to do it automatically.

Dramatically improved the ease of managing test documentation at Lear Corporation by taking the unprompted initiative to develop an application for technicians, test engineers, and validation engineers to easily track and work on test documents, files, and reports.

Developed a complete system to make electrical interfacing with “nerve-on-a-chip” hydrogel neurite constructs for electrophysiological testing faster and easier for my Master’s Thesis at Tulane University.

Developed a hardware and software solution to make wireless, bandage-like pressure monitoring patches to aid in the prevention of pressure point injuries during surgical procedures and, with the team, formed a startup to commercialize the technology.
