Product Design
This section highlights my work in inclusive product design, where the primary goal is creating practical solutions that aid individuals living with chronic conditions, physical impairments, and daily mobility or sensory challenges. By focusing on empathetic problem-solving and functional prototyping, these concepts explore how design can lower accessibility barriers, restore independence, and improve everyday quality of life.
Spin Art Machine
The Spin Art Machine turns drawing — normally a high-dexterity task — into something any child can do. A paper platform rotates on a DC motor while the child rests a marker lightly against it; the spinning does the work, so the smallest contact produces bold, satisfying color and pattern. I designed it for children with cerebral palsy, where fine motor control is the barrier to a creative activity most kids take for granted.
Gloggles
Gloggles solves a problem I have myself. Swimmers who wear strong prescription glasses can't see underwater, and sports prescription goggles are expensive. Gloggles let you slide the front frame of your everyday glasses into a 3D-printed goggle housing — so the lenses you already own become the lenses you swim with.
I modeled the frame and gasket in Tinkercad, iterating on the slot dimensions and the side-arm sockets so a pair of glasses locks in securely without a permanent fit. It's a low-cost, personal answer to an accessibility problem the market prices out of reach.
