In collaboration with The Social Changery - Decoded is an escape room-style game designed to help youth learn about decision-making and consider their choices about substance use. For this game, I researched educational gaming, framed the game within the context of theories of public health, worked on modifying the narrative to introduce more complicated and relevant choices and designed an in-depth facilitation guide and debrief to allow youth to contextualize their in-game experiences in the real world.

In collaboration with the Pacific Museum of Earth and STEAM Labs - Climate Hero is a game designed to help teach school-aged kids about climate change. I worked in Twine to develop branching narratives for this game and wrote characters and scripts. I also worked to create a debrief for educators focused on helping the players delve deeper into the concepts explored in the game and challenge conceptions about climate change to broaden their perspectives.

I have worked for over ten years in the ad world, video producing for my husband at Happy Creations. We are a full-service post-production house with a decade of experience helping clients to produce awesome videos for TV and the web.

In collaboration with Toronto Metropolitan University, I am working to design an engaging and thought-provoking course on the Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence. This project involves creating a comprehensive schedule with weekly topics, selecting relevant readings and course materials, and crafting unique AI-based assignments. Through this course, students will explore the profound philosophical implications of artificial intelligence and develop a deeper understanding of its ethical, metaphysical, and societal significance.
