What I'm doing now

Updated June 2026 from Austin, Texas.

I’m preparing to start the MSIS program at UT Austin this fall. My attention is mostly on civic technology, public-interest systems, service design, and how AI tools can help people make sense of complex work without flattening it.

Right now I’m rebuilding this website and portfolio, organizing Open Austin work, and developing a few essays around technology, design, aesthetics, and institutional life.

I’m especially interested in public-sector design systems, civic tech infrastructure, AI-assisted knowledge work, agentic service design workflows, and the messy practical work of making organizations more legible.

I’m selectively open to conversations around internships, campus work, civic tech, public-interest technology, and thoughtful collaboration in Austin.
