Hi, I'm Rhea, a Community Centered Designer + Researcher.
A Research enthusiast, I attach in-depth research findings in order to design & develop systems that ensure improved quality of life. The underlying basis of my work is derived from problems surrounding cultural, environmental, and social parameters. I am currently studying MA Social Design at Maryland Institute College of Arts (MICA), Baltimore, Maryland. The course focuses on the power of Human Centered Design as a catalyst for Social Change. In the past 3 months, I have been working on my thesis 'Building Digital Equity through Literacy for Older Adults.'. You can view my progress here. MY CORE PRACTICES
