Work Experience
I'm one of the first five team members building out garden3d's product design offering. Our studio, Manhattan Hydraulics, collaborates with Sanctuary Computer and XXIX on independent projects, like our community space Index. We also come together to work with interesting clients, including Google, Pinterest, Geneva, and Etsy.
Clients included Goldman Sachs, Bottega Veneta, Aldo, and Give Blck.
I spent a year working with Bakken & Bæck in their Oslo and Amsterdam offices. I led the production of the 2018 edition of their weird one-day conference, An Interesting Day.
Education
I participated in a Sex Ed program lead by Neta Bomani and Melanie Hoff, dedicated to studying the ways that sex is encoded in our society and unlearning harmful social programming.
I took part in a program about Digital Love Languages, taught by Melanie Hoff.
I took part in a program dedicated to new ways of publishing on the internet, taught by Laurel Schwulst and John Provencher.
I graduated from the York University / Sheridan College Program in Design, and spent a semester studying at the Bauhaus University.
