In Winter, I joined the Augmented Intelligence Lab under Dr. Edith Law, Google Research Chair and Human-AI researcher at the University of Waterloo.

The 80/20 rule

AI accelerated the design process during this project where reaching the first 80% of an idea became significantly faster. I learned that the remaining 20% gap relies in intention: the nuance behind product thinking, interaction details, and craft that feels thoughtful.

Ownership in ambiguity

My role involved navigating ambiguity, making decisions with incomplete information, and developing strong rationale behind why certain ideas were worth pursuing over others. I'm incredibly grateful for the amount of ownership and trust I was given over my projects!
