Platonic Solids Model
This project was my introduction to creating laser-cutting files and the CorelDraw software. I was given the task of creating an interactive model to teach children about the Platonic Solids. I collaborated with coworkers and my mentor to gather feedback, test, and iterate through a few versions before establishing a final design. I then printed and assembled 25 models to be dristributed to local libraries and schools.
Grandpa's Quilt Puzzle
I created this puzzle based on a book called Grandpa's Quilt by Betsy Franco which follows a story of creating and altering a quilt to display relationships between surface-area and perimeter. The final product was a set of fabric shape magnets that can be arranged in two different layouts on a magnetic surface. I first created a design and a Cricut file that would cut out shapes and print sewing guidelines on thin cotton fabric. I then sewed these pieces into quilt-like shapes and attached magnets to each component.
Caliper Making Activity
This cardboard calipers activity booklet was created as an educational resource for teachers/tutors/parents to use independently. The booklet I made provides instructions to create calipers that measure different common ratios. The booklet also provides a link to the SVG files for those who wish to access them.
Golden-Ratio Activity Kit
As a progression of my calipers project, I developed a kit for this activity with an emphasis on the Golden Ratio caliper. I recreated the cardboard calipers booklet to accompany the kit as well.
Newspaper Math Challenges
These math challenges I created were published in the Austin Chronicle Newspaper as a part of MathHappens' weekly "Math Advertisement" project. I was responsible for researching and developing a quick mathematical activities on subjects of my choosing.
Miscellaneous Illustrations
Here is a collection of some non-professional works that I have created. The collection includes a number of illustrations I have made using procreate. These images are a peek inside what kind of art I enjoy playing around with in my free time. Enjoy!
