In-Person & Virtual Events & Conferences
Prior to the pandemic, I participated in a number of in-peron tech and design events and conferences. I led in-person talks and participated as a panel speaker. During the pandemic, I hosted monthly virtual events that I spoke at. I was also invited and contracted by a number of companies to give talks on topics ranging from User Experience Design to Inclusive Design to Design Systems. Now, post-pandemic, I've continued speaking at virtual events as well as speaking at in-person events. I look forward to speak at even more in-person events and conferences!
In-Person & Virtual Classes & Seminars
I've been a tech and design educator for over five years. I have experience teaching at tech and design bootcamps such as General Assembly where I taught five part-time User Experience Design cohorts. I have experience mentoring at tech and design bootcamps as well such as CareerFoundry and Designlab where I've mentored almost 100 User Experience Design students. Most recently, I've been a Design Educator at CUNY, NYC's public college and university system, teaching User Experience Design, UX Design Entrepreneurship, and Augmented Reality classes.
Short & Long-Form Video
I really enjoy creating both short and long-form video content. Prior to collaborating with other companies on content creation, I created my own content. During the pandemic, I uploaded weekly YouTube videos that helped me grow an audience of 1,000 subscribers. My content also helped me grow my LinkedIn audience to 10,000 connections and followers. In addition to resuming my own content, I now also collaborate with companies to create tech and design content.
