My work at Innovation Works has evolved over time but has always been dedicated in some way to advocating for, centering, and improving the quality of experiences for the organization’s internal and external stakeholders (team members, entrepreneurs, mentors, etc.). My current role includes managing a portfolio of projects spanning across all areas of the organization and serving as an internal and external consultant in the areas of human-centered design, lean start-up methodology, service design, and curriculum design.

Spark!Lab is a hands-on invention space at the National Museum of American History that seeks to empower children and families to become inventors and innovators. As a Lead Facilitator my responsibilities were centered around creating meaningful experiences for our visitors. I was promoted from Facilitator to Lead Facilitator in October 2018. In this role I had a variety of front facing and behind-the-scenes responsibilities. These included - onboarding, engaging and encouraging volunteers and visitors through conversation, inquiry and experimentation, assisting with daily operations and responding to any problems as they arise, developing and implementing evaluative research methods, and contributing ideas and feedback centered around visitor experience. My work with Spark!Lab allowed me to find new ways to apply an innovative mindset and use different design tools in my work.

After working as a Design Thinking Intern during the summer of 2017, I returned the next summer in 2018 as the Experience Design Intern for the Academy for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (AIE). In collaboration with the AIE team, I helped design a project based internship experience. I had a unique position that allowed me to be a leader amongst a multidisciplinary team of 6 Innovation Interns, as well as jump in and design alongside them. I was able to work on a variety of projects, including - - Coordinating and designing a project and partnership with the National Orchestral Institute focused on making the symphony more accessible and inclusive. - Developing curriculum and facilitate a class for high school students focused on sustainability and innovation.

As a Peer Innovation Coach with the Academy for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (AIE), I learned innovation mindsets, tools, and processes - such as design thinking and lean start-up- so that I could then empower others to experiment with their own creativity through design and innovation. I was able to do this through facilitating and coaching a variety of learners and leaders at UMD, and designing and leading workshops with anywhere from 10 - 100 participants that leveraged these innovative mindsets and tools.Throughout this experience I was able to develop my own coaching style and strengthen my design abilities like, navigating ambiguity, conducting empathy research to learn from others, and synthesizing and sensemaking.

As a Resident Assistant at UMD, my main goal was to create a genuine community among the 50+ residents living on my floor. I assumed primary responsibility for responding to each unit’s unique needs, managing critical administrative tasks, and creating an environment that supported academic and social needs. In this role I developed relationships with each resident, maintained a network of university resources and services to connect students to what they needed, managed and documented incidents during weekly duty shifts, and planned and implemented monthly educational and social events. Being a Resident Assistant allowed me to develop leadership and communication skills that have proven to be incredibly valuable.
