Comma Ai's Openpilot product is an open source advanced driver assistance system that works on 250+ car models. I set myself up with a quick design exploration one week to improve on Open Pilot's UI. I wanted to convey, more concretely, the device's various confidence states. For the complete exploration visit these slides here.

I was lucky enough to spend some time traveling last November and wanted to send letters in digital form to friends and family. Texting a bunch of photos and having to explain my trip in that way just didn't seem like an adequate way to convey my time or feelings. I started designing handwritten postcards with Procreate but it took so freaking long to make even just one. This design exploration was for a simple mobile app that would allow you to easily upload photos and add handwritten notes explaining your ideas/ feelings/photos. We'll call it the Postcard app for now.

My friend Emma approached me to help illustrate a collection of NFT's for her startup Velvet. The end goal was to create a guide on how to mint and launch an NFT collection for under $600 as an educational post for those interested in the world of Web 3. I had a lot of fun creating these utilizing Velvet's electric yellow brand color and the prompt "smooth like Velvet." We landed on creating an NFT set of mystical femme fatales inspired by characters like medusa and ophelia and mythical creatures like mermaids and vampires.
