GRADUATE CAPSTONE DESIGN
REIMAGINING QBK SPORTS
GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY | SPRING 2024
QBK Indoor Beach Volleyball Gym | Senior Capstone Project, Georgetown University
As part of my Master’s in Design Management and Communication program, I partnered pro bono with QBK, a local indoor beach volleyball gym in NYC, where I am also a member. Acting as a design manager, I collaborated closely with the team to reimagine and improve their physical space—not only to enhance the customer experience and business profitability but also to evaluate operational strengths and challenges critical for potential franchise expansion.
This project combined user-centered research, spatial redesign, and strategic business analysis to deliver actionable insights and design solutions that support QBK’s growth ambitions and community engagement.

UNDERGRADUATE CAPSTONE DESIGN
THE BROWSE BOX
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI | SPRING 2019
UC Forward Honors Program – Inquiry to Innovation
In collaboration with the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, The Browse Box was developed through the UC Forward Honors Program, focusing on cross-disciplinary innovation and user-centered research. Our team was tasked with observing and analyzing giraffe behavior in a zoo environment to identify ways to encourage naturalistic behaviors—specifically extending engagement and foraging time when zookeepers were not present.
Through iterative prototyping and behavioral research, we designed The Browse Box, an enrichment solution that simulates natural browsing patterns by offering a stimulating, timed feeding experience. This project emphasized empathetic design, animal welfare, and interdisciplinary collaboration—combining elements of biology, engineering, and design thinking to create a more enriching habitat experience.
