I am happy to share that I have officially finished my exchange semester at Shibaura Institute of Technology in Tokyo, Japan!
During my time here, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to explore research and technology in one of the world’s leading tech hubs, as well as dive into interaction design and user experience from a brand-new cultural perspective. I’m excited to carry these insights forward into my future career to create more inclusive and innovative designs.
Beyond academics, this experience introduced me to amazing people in an international environment filled with curiosity and mutual respect. Living immersed in Japanese culture is something I will forever be thankful for. A huge thank you to Anna Whitlocks Minnesfond for supporting this chapter in my academic journey!
