At Factory360, I spent two semesters in New York City as a design intern developing 3D renderings and visualizations for experiential marketing activations: translating creative concepts into fabrication-ready designs. Throughout my time, I contributed to 20+ client projects and RFPs.

My work spanned the full project lifecycle, from preparing RFP pitches for prospective clients to supporting the run-of-show for projects like the INSTAX Mini 99 launch. The role sharpened my ability to swiftly design with production constraints in mind, and I learned to lead with culturally relevant, engaging ideas to strengthen the foundation of my design process.

As part of a five-person, interdisciplinary undergraduate team, I collaborated with Kao Corporation to produce six fake out-of-home concept videos wrapping landmarks across England, Germany, and the Netherlands with KMS and Goldwell brand assets.

I focused on framing the digital storytelling and Blender animation research, helping the team navigate unfamiliar software across an 8-week timeline under a live client relationship.

I designed klar, a powered brush applicator and cleaner to join the Guide Beauty product line, to reduce friction in the makeup process and support users with limited hand dexterity.

Rooted in user task analysis and state of the art analysis, I worked through foam and PLA iterations to land on a form supporting both application and cleaning gestures. I learned Blender for final renders + animations and developed an experiential brand extension concept contextualizing klar within Guide Beauty's broader retail experience.
