During the summer, I led the making of a drop-in program at the National Museum of Natural History’s Cellphone Exhibit, which opened on June 23, 2023.
This program is an analog whiteboard-based activity placed at the end of the museum to invite inter-generational museum guests to reflect on their use of cellphones and the internet.

Key Achievements
- Opportunity Identification: Defined 5 opportunity areas for the interactive program and presented them to the exhibit team.
- Interactive Design: Crafted interactive systems, formulated questions and prompts, and designed lo-fi and digital prototypes.
- User Testing: Conducted user testing with museum visitors and high school students to refine the program.

This was drawn by an exhibit team’s artist, and was used as concept art a lot as a guideline!
