Hi, I'm Spoorthi! I’m interested in integrating human-centered
design and technology into social-good projects. My passion for math and problem-solving founded my interest to pursue computer science and front-end programming to complement design in my degree. Last summer, I worked on creating seller-facing interfaces as a UX Designer at Amazon.

PHYSICAL COMPUTING, PROGRAMMING, FABRICATION

Interactive Pittsburgh Monopoly

Translated a 2D version of this common game which requires multiple physical components into a unique immersive and portable experience

Creating a capacitive touch sensor with RGB LEDs integrated with a laser-cut wooden board and 3D-printed game pieces, transmitting messages using 2 Arduino Megas, to a Python Application for gameplay and UI, our game both digitally and physically reflects aspects of Monopoly including player money, rolling dice, purchasing property, paying rent, jail, and more.
