STIW Lab · Part-time · Sep 2024 – Feb 2026 · Pittsburgh, PA
- Designed FutureBound, a digital future-envisioning system that helps people iterate on short- and long-term goals and link them to actionable pathways.
- Defined the vision-board interaction model: parallel boards, a flexible central canvas, mentor and attribute affordances, multiple ways to bring in imagery (curated libraries and personal sources), background treatment, audio storytelling, and visual connectors between elements.
- Designed for privacy and continuity—offline-capable JSON export without an account, plus optional cloud saves so boards stay revisable over time.
- Co-authored and submitted research on iterative ideation in this space to a top HCI conference.
