Helping people vote, On My Ballot
I'm a student at the University of Michigan studying Econ, CS, Design, & everything in between. I'm really interested in mechanics design and how artificial systems & frameworks we create can influence people and their decision making, particularly in physical spaces.
Also a huge fan of hip-hop, paricularly Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, & Frank Ocean, and the way they tackle complex social issues through their narratives.
Other things I like: coffee, books, social justice, interior design, game theory, NASA, fashion design, dogs (non-exhaustive)
Sometimes I write about things I feel strongly about. Here are some of my favorites:
Group Sessions @ Quora (Design & Launch) - a way for multiple domain experts to source and answer the best questions and answer them together, with the first one hosted by Hillary Clinton & Time Kaine
Ballot (Design, Dev, & Launch) - a platform to help people vote in Congress by sourcing a feed of bills based on their interests and the ability to vote on bills, which is then relayed back to their representatives.
Startup High School (Director 2015-2016) - taught in high schools around Detroit and helped start & encouraged local efforts run by students. Raised 20K to fund student projects in and around Detroit
