Local Food in 2035

Created as a class project in Futures Research, my work won 3rd place in the Association of Professional Futurists individual masters student work competition.

Using the Framework Foresight methodology I synthesized expert interviews, horizon scanning, and systems mapping to identify drivers of change and write a set of scenario vignettes to be explored for implications and options.

With the brief to “think differently” with the format of our presentation, I created a micro-website using Notion to present my research and generate insights into what these scenarios might mean for my hypothetical client through user generated content.

Sustainable Shelter: Twin Cities Housing Affordability in 2050

Created as a class project in World Futures.

The Twin Cities suffers from one of the worst housing shortages in the nation. There is also a need to cut greenhouse gas emissions from all sectors. What strategies can the Twin Cities pursue to improve on both fronts?

In this report, I used Framework Foresight to describe and map the current state of the domain, identify emerging issues and drivers of change, and create a 2x2 scenario matrix and one detailed scenario narrative to analyze for implications.

IN THE RIVER

Production management for IN THE RIVER, a site-specific public performance by artist Karthik Pandian and presented as part of Midway Contemporary Art’s Offsite program.

Produced in collaboration with Mike Forcia and an ensemble of Twin Cities-based musicians, dancers, media workers, and activists, IN THE RIVER braids Indigenous prophecy, Black music, and stories of survival to challenge the colonial monument’s claim on space and time.
