“Tell me about yourself.”
Growing up, I explored a range of interests: business, cognitive science, and equity and inclusion, to name a few. As a student in the College of Human Ecology, I’ve had the opportunity to delve deeper into all of these disciplines as well as discover new ones. Through my coursework, I’ve found a passion for experience design and human factors design.
Where do you see yourself in the future?
