Technology & Prototyping

HOW DO I WORK?

I bring ideas to life by blending digital craftsmanship with hands-on prototyping. Whether it’s 4D printing, wearable tech, or data-enabled design, I move fluidly between software, materials, and machines, combining precision with creativity. My work spans from textile-based sensors to Arduino, from fabrication tools to storytelling through technical documentation.

KEY SKILLS

  • 3D printing workflows (Illustrator, Cura, PrusaSlicer)

  • Arduino prototyping & textile-based sensors

  • 2D Pattern design for fabrication

  • Design for small-scale production

  • Iterative prototyping & technical documentation

  • Canva (content design), Miro (concept mapping, planning)

  • Python (basic) for data analysis
