I leverage mechanical design to physically augment digital applications to enhance tangible experiences.

Every new wave of education technology promises to transform the classroom, yet in our study of high school science labs, teachers were clear: students learn the most from handling real equipment and working through messy, real data. But some of the most important ideas, like forces, energy, and molecules, are invisible to the eye, and that is where digital tools shine. Most lab technology picks one side, replacing the experiment with a “perfect” simulation.

My work combines them. I build technology that augments hands-on experiences instead of replacing them, keeping the physical world at the center and adding digital insight on top.
