About ME

Hi, I'm Gabriella!

Hi, I’m Gabriella!

Hi, I’m Gabriella!

Outside of my technology work, I value intentional community building, leadership, and creativity. I am a photographer, visual artist, and singer who has served in many positions organizing community events, experiences, and projects.

I'm a Stanford computer science student interested in building technology that augments human creativity, connection, and well-being. I came to school really excited about mathematics, and became deeply interested in effectively using current AI systems to solve human problems. My current focus includes software engineering, human-computer interaction research, and product design because I believe the most meaningful products require both technical sophistication and intentional human-centered design. I'm drawn to problems that sit at the intersection of people, technology, and expression.

KYRO

On a Team of 4, I worked as a UX researcher, mobile/web developer, and lead visual designer for the end-to-end creation of an emotional scheduling platform. Following user interviews conducted with a diverse set of participants across the Bay Area, we created the project to solve the problem of burnout amongst young adults. Won Best Concept, Most Novel, and 4 additional awards.

ArtXGenAI

As a CURIS Summer intern in James Landay's Lab, I started research on GenAI Creative technologies. Motivated by the noticed gap between artists concerns and current industry development, we worked to develop co-design workshops for community-centered tools.

Space Updates

I created an educational app with React Native that pulls live data from Nasa. The app gives updates and information about space with a playful design.

Multidisciplinary Exploration

Creative Projects

Whether building an FFT spectrum analyzer with an Arduino or shooting and designing fashion spreads, experimentation across mediums is essential to how I see the world.
