I’ve dedicated my life, since age 6, to learning how to become anything as a performer, ultimately training in dance and acting at The Juilliard School.
My interest in building technology was born after I developed a stress fracture in my lower back in high school. I pivoted to attend Juilliard after working professionally as a ballet dancer and was enamored with working as a director in a department called the Center for Innovation in the Arts. My role was to develop theatrical projects incorporating immersive projection design, motion capture, and interactive systems between the audience and A.I. After graduating in 2020, I was called on to be a caretaker for my grandmother during the pandemic, which illuminated the necessity of useful applications to reimagine the health care industry. Meanwhile, I co-created a small production company that produced feature film projects, new media works, and ethical A.I. street-based performances to uplift my community. Most recently, I finished working on a new Broadway production of the book “The Outsiders!”
Currently, I am a Harvard Graduate School of Design student in the MDes Technology program and am eager to learn HOW TO MAKE ALMOST ANYTHING @ the MIT Media Lab.
