PackVest
The PackVest was a prototype I develop during my senior year at OSU-Cascades. This project was developed with a team of 4 students as an attempt to develop a new product that had not seen the market before. The initial concept was a vest with a detachable backpack, allowing the user to modify their clothing to be practical in multiple situations. Over the course of 2 terms our team worked through the iterative design process where we made changes to the product based on market research from individuals on campus. Developed with Bluesign approved sustainable materia
TouchLink
TouchLink is a concept business idea developed by my student team and I as part of a class project. The initiative aimed to create a more inclusive shopping experience for individuals with visual impairments by providing equal access to product information. Our solution involved a smart tag embedded with a QR code, allowing users to scan and receive detailed product information—such as size, material, care instructions, and pricing—that would typically be found on traditional clothing tags.
From a business standpoint, TouchLink was designed as a B2B product, intended to be sold in bulk to retailers. We envisioned a centralized digital platform where retailers and manufacturers could upload and manage product data, effectively bridging the gap between physical and digital retail experiences. In addition to promoting accessibility, TouchLink aimed to reduce waste generated by printed tags, offering a sustainable and tech-forward alternative to conventional labeling methods.

Testing
The Ankle Support Cleat was a passion project I pursued during my senior year in Design, driven by a desire to develop a product with real-world application rooted in consumer need. The inspiration came from my sister, a collegiate soccer player who frequently suffered ankle injuries that required hospital visits. Her experience led me to question why soccer cleats, unlike those used in sports such as basketball or football, typically lack substantial ankle support. Additionally, this is a project I pursued to step out of my comfort zone and try to design a product without knowing a lot about physical therapy.
Motivated by both personal connection and practical design challenges, I set out to conceptualize a cleat that integrates supportive yet flexible ankle protection. The result was a design that offers structured, comfortable ankle support built into the upper portion of the cleat—helping to reduce injury risk without restricting range of motion.
This project became more than a design exercise—it evolved into a mission to reimagine athletic footwear and contribute to a safer future for athletes across all levels of play.
