Inset Threads for Existing Screws



Inset Threads for Existing Screws
Guided Hands Repairable Redesign
Designed custom brackets, sliders, and a repair guide for The Guided Hands fine
motor stabilizers, enabling cost-effective in-house repairs within the existing
device ecosystem. The repair guide walks though the technical steps in accessible language for an extensible project that was handed off to new librarians for the Colorado assistive technology library.


Electric Mending
Integrated flexible LEDs and sensors into modular patches using traditional weaving and darning techniques as well as microcontrollers to create a wearable responsive glowing garment that transforms from a bolero into a vest


The box houses the Arduino and breadboard


Catroller Circut Design
Alternative video game controller built using hardware prototyping tools like breadboards, soldering, and jump wires. Uses photo resistors to sense the movement of the balls on the track and consequently moves the characters around in the video game.

Antique Gallery Render
Made a CAD of a folding screen put together with hidden joints in an antique gallery and rendered it using Rhino 3D.



Used to make tabs on all the required seams

Gem Cuts Paper Models
Unrolled CAD designs of gems cuts made with Rhino and Grasshopper and reproduced them in paper.



Used to make tabs on all the required seams





Coffee Cup Sliced Model
Created a CAD model replicating the curves and shape of the Starbucks classic reusable coffee cup and added a personal touch with the logo cutting into the cup itself. Then I reproduced the model using laser cut interlocking slices of paper made with the program Slicer for Fusion 360.




Novel Wood Joints
Created a four way wood joint using a Modified Cross Miter Joint with Jigsaw Key. It connects four flat pieces with a key shaped like a flower and requires two layers. The joint was produced using a laser cutter on thin plywood.

Sad Chicken Sticker
Made a custom die-cut sticker featuring a sad chicken. Scroll though the gallery for earlier generations of the sad chicken.
