Care about
Things I care enough about to inquire into, experiment with, and hope to contribute to.
- 01
AI products beyond knowledge workers
I think about my kids entering an unrecognizable job market, my aging parents and the future of elder care, and the women in my parents group still carrying the invisible work of running a household. AI today is built mostly by knowledge workers, for knowledge workers, leaving the rest of the world on the sideline. The most impactful products, the ones that reach further than a chat box, haven't been built yet.

Designing AI beyond the chat box
We started with a chat box, but the chat box isn't enough. AI isn't meant to be front and center; it's the breathing tissue underneath everything we do, present but invisible. The work is to design what, when, and how it shows up, starting from user needs and information flow rather than from the model.

Evaluating design taste
AI is collapsing the handoff between designer and developer. As design work moves into code, through Claude Design or the next generation of Figma, the question becomes: can design taste be evaluated the way engineering practice is, with tests, evals, and shared rubrics? Some of taste is codifiable and some of it isn't; the real work is finding that line and streamlining everything below it.

AI's role in leveling education
AI promises to level the playing field, but access to opportunity is still uneven. How do we make education actually accessible, not just available, but reachable for the people who need it most? And what additional signals, alongside a university degree, can give more people a way to demonstrate their skills and knowledge?

Making our physical world smarter
AI has lived mostly inside our screens, but most of life happens off them. The next breakthrough is in the physical world we inhabit: our homes, our energy systems, the devices we live among. This is the last frontier, and the one closest to daily life.
