Creta

Designer & Prototyper, Co-Creator | 2024 - 2025

Creta is an Auggie-nominated, XRDC hackathon-winning Mixed Reality learning experience that blends hands-on pottery with cultural storytelling. Using real clay, users are guided by AR overlays and receive AI-powered feedback as they craft pottery inspired by historical traditions.

My work included designing and developing intuitive hand gesture interactions for natural navigation, creating an immersive onboarding sequence to ease users into the experience, crafting a promotional video that captures the app’s vision and more.

LYNQ

User Experience Designer, Co-Creator | 2025

LYNQ is a hackathon-winning Augmented Reality experience for Spectacles, designed to enhance networking at public events. Inspired by the Blind Box concept, LYNQ uses AI to generate a curated list of potential connections - delivered as interactive AR cards - based on your personal and professional interests. It also suggests icebreakers to help spark meaningful conversations.

My role focused on curating the core concept and shaping the user journey to ensure a fun, functional, and effective experience. I also supported the UI design process as needed.

Devpost project

Narratioxr

Project Manager / Product Designer, Co-Creator | 2025

NarratioXR was developed during XRCC 2025 as a Mixed Reality learning tool for aspiring storytellers. Using AI, the app transforms a user’s story into structured scenes and interactive tasks designed to teach the fundamentals of storyboarding. Inside a 3D MR studio, users complete each task to build their visual narrative. At the end of every scene, they can generate a high-definition frame - and once the full storyboard is complete, the app compiles all frames into a seamless visual sequence.

I led the concept development, designed the user experience, and managed the project from start to finish. I was also responsible for crafting the narrative structure and producing the promotional video, ensuring a cohesive vision across design, storytelling, and execution.

Arti AR

Unreal Engine Plugin

An Unreal Engine plugin that consolidates all
AR templates logic for Arti’s 3D Designers, serving
as the initial step. Built as an in-house tool using
Unreal’s GUI system, it could be controlled
directly from within the engine and was
connected to Arti’s servers. It allowed designers
to upload assets, enabling design flexibility and
customization.
Notch XR is a venture in development, a mixed reality app that brings the DIY sewing process into the digital age. By using augmented reality, it allows users to interact with sewing patterns in a whole new way, offering a more intuitive and engaging experience. The app is designed to make sewing more accessible and sustainable, encouraging creativity while minimizing waste.

Sandbox

XR Design & Prototyping

I explore experimental interactions in XR,
focusing on how users engage with digital
environments beyond traditional screens.
From hand gesture controls to spatial UI concepts,
my projects test the limits of intuitive, immersive i
nterfaces. This space is a sandbox for innovation,
where I prototype new ways to interact in XR.

About Me

I'm an XR designer and developer with a deep focus on augmented and mixed reality. My work explores how technology can enhance - not replace - our connection to the world around us. I design spatial experiences that encourage people to engage more consciously with their surroundings, using XR to layer meaning, story and play into physical space.

With a background in design, prototyping, and creative direction, I move fluidly between concept and execution - often combining technical development with artistic exploration.
