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 and reaching the first 80% of an idea became significantly faster. 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 in 0-1 product work, 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!
