Hello,

I am an MPhil candidate in Environment, Society and Sustainability at the University of Cape Town, South Africa. I hold an MFA in Transdisciplinary Design from Parsons School of Design, US, as well as a BA from Palermo University, Argentina, in Graphic and Package Design.

I use design as a way of seeing the world, rooted in empathy, questions, and experiments.

I am a design strategist curious in exploring design's ability to generate civic engagement and behavioral change. My work consists of delivering social impact and developing practical solutions to complex challenges. I thrive in the intersections of research, system thinking, and innovation to formulate strategies that are nuanced, and compelling, rooted in qualitative and quantitative research as they are in creative ideation.

MY DESIGN PRINCIPLES

REFRAME and visualize the broader context to introduce new concepts and methods to discover innovative opportunities.

CONNECT and motivate people to be active partners. Involve them with respect and equality at every stage of a project, and empower communities to practice human-centered design.
