As a Producer I…

Developed hardware prototypes that have seen continued use and helped teachers engage kids (K - 2nd grade) with light color theory.

  • Successfully delivered product to stakeholders on time by utilizing agile methodologies during development.

  • Managed multiple stakeholders including our client and schools in the Greater Pittsburgh Area to coordinate playtests with children in the project’s intended demographic which allowed us to quickly iterate and plan for future sprints.

  • Created detailed instructional documents that and allowed teachers to successfully deploy hardware in classrooms.

About Colorize

Colorize was a project at CMU’s Entertainment Technology Center with the goal to create hardware prototypes and documentation for activities that will introduce elementary school students in K- 2nd grade to the colors of the light spectrum and light color mixing. The project was built for West Liberty University’s Center for Arts and Education. Our deliverables at the end of the semester were 4 separate activities with the appropriate documentation for teachers to use as part of their lesson plans as well as instructions to recreate the activities.

Other responsibilities: Fabrication, Sound Design

 Here are some other ways I’m contributing to the team!

- Helping with the fabrication of our hardware prototypes using my skills as a woodworker.

- Creating design drafts for hardware in Autodesk Tinkercad.

- Creating and designing sounds for our software prototypes.
