PROJECT OVERVIEW

Memoverse

2025

In response to the devastating 2025 Los Angeles Fire, Memoverse is a web AR solution that lets users revisit 3D scans of lost sites and share personal memories via text, images, and videos. It rebuilds community memory through spatial experiences and fosters healing after the sudden loss of cherished spaces.

This case study demonstrates my ability to thrive in rapid, high-pressure environments while advocating for user value and driving effective cross-functional collaboration.
