Neuroplicity (Neuroscience + Simplicity) is a project centered around promoting scientific literacy among the public, particularly involving the field of neuroscience. The group uses self-generated content to make complex neuroscience topics more accessible to the public.My work with Neuroplicity has mainly involved the development of "Virion", an educational video game about rabies and basic research. We have built the game form the ground up, making our own 3D models in and putting everything together in the Unity game engine. Over the last two years I helped manage a team of undergraduate students to keep development on track, as well as building models helping with level design and writing the game's logic.

I spent July 2017 filming and interviewing for an environmental documentary through the BN Duke Scholarship. The project was focused on independent spaces in Colombia that approached environmentalism in innovative and often interdisciplinary ways. I am currently in the process of editing the short film.
