Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hey, there! I’m Andrew, and I’ve been tinkering with software, hardware, and the way I think for as long as I can remember. I’m learning to build equitable, sustainable infrastructural systems through human-centered design. I love taking a close look at the world around me and its patterns—whether in GIS and code, or linguistics and photography.

X363: An Adventure in Looking and Listening in Splash Fall 2021 (Nov. 06, 2021)
If you can hear the sound of the sea in a shell, can you hear the sounds of the city inside a tin can? This highly interactive, discussion-based class, co-taught by a civil engineer and a humanities major, is an example of what can happen when two very different disciplines come together. This is a deeper look into what typically goes unseen—public (and private) structures that mold where we live and, of course, the way we live. Join us as, with new perspectives, we explore our cities, towns, and suburbs. What do we see when we choose to notice?
