Welcome!

I'm Ariel, a senior at Vanderbilt University studying Human & Organizational Development with a minor in Japanese Language & Culture.
 

Studying Human and Organizational Development, I have come to appreciate the importance of understanding human behavior and the interpersonal aspects of design.  As a learning designer, I love the fusion between creativity and logical problem-solving within product design.  

​

I am driven by a commitment to use design as a tool for social change, connecting and enhancing the lives of insiders and outsiders alike. I believe that understanding and bridging the gap between these identities through thoughtful design can create more inclusive and empathetic communities.

​

In my free time, I enjoy making anything from digital designs to ceramics and playing golf.
