Features

2024

I shared my ideas around the internet + my relationship with the (digital) world.

"My dream internet is a slower, softer space, where we are encouraged to gather in curiosity, and witness each other in love. The dream really is as loose as that sounds. I want an internet that encourages intention and mindfulness as much as it emphasizes our individual capacities to cultivate that. Being somewhat a physical, malleable place to me – I also want it to be soil we prime for future technologists to be able to enjoy, as we have been able to."
