Hello, I'm Nada!

Currently a final year at SUTD studying Computer Science & Design, with a focus in Human-Computer Interaction.

I'm particularly interested in exploring opportunities related to designing + researching for communities, preservation (of culture + stories), youth intervention, and more broadly, designing in the intersection between tech and social impact!

Throughout university, I was involved as a Design Mentor, organising mentors & mentoring secondary school students girls from lower-income households to develop their design projects, as part of a programme that introduces STEAM education for the youth (under a collaboration w/ JP Morgan + DesignZ).

I was also involved as a User Researcher under the Youth & Digital Media Lab, researching on the impact of technology on youth development— carrying out ethnographic home studies, user interviews with children, and doing data analysis on the data we collected. (tldr of the research: technology isn’t always a negative influence on kids btw)!
Outside of that, you can find me at a pottery studio on weekends exploring new forms (most of them end up as mugs or pots for my house plants), or going around Singapore exploring different neighbourhoods! Sometimes I also help paint murals & volunteer with Participate in Design (P!D)!
