Hi I’m Cassie, an experience designer, researcher, and creative technologist

I design technologies and the in-person gatherings that contain them. From interactive immersive worlds to AI-community systems, I'm working toward a world where people are empowered to deeply connect, take agency in their communities, and resist technology-driven isolation.

I'm currently research staff at the MIT Center for Constructive Communication, where I study how gatherings are designed and what happens when technology is built into them.

Welcome to my page!
