I am an interaction designer and artist. After a decade of working in industry, I now run SHIFT CMD, a research and design studio for experimental interfaces and conceptual work about computing. I was most recently a Senior Research Designer at Reality Labs Research at Meta, developing UX for contextual AI systems, and was a Y12 Incubator Member at NEW INC. My art and writing have been presented internationally at Ars Electronica, MAAT, and Abierto Mexicano de Diseño, and published in the Are.na Annual and The HTML Review. I'm currently based between Seattle and Taipei.
This site is my ongoing index of updates:
