6/ Her unique lens:

Understanding how small details create a big impact. Thinking about how people experience spaces. Seeing the larger picture.

Whether physical or digital, that perspective shapes everything she designs.

5/ What's different? Speed and scale.

Landscape: months/years, community-wide impact
Product: days/weeks, interaction-focused

But the thinking behind both? Identical.

4/ Even research methods translate directly.

Site analysis → Technical constraints
User research → User research

Understanding what's possible vs. what's needed. Same framework, different space.

3/ She learned to design for invisible disabilities—people who struggle but you'd never know from the outside.

A cobblestone path that looks beautiful can be a painful barrier for someone with a chronic illness.

That awareness transfers to digital products.

2/ Designing a park vs. designing an app?

Same fundamental challenge: understand what people need, prototype solutions, test, and iterate.

The medium changes. The problem-solving approach doesn't.

9/ 🛠️ What we have:

✓ Distribution
✓ Infrastructure
✓ Policy clarity

What we need:
✗ Products people want

Let's build.

8/ 🤖 Crypto × AI converging:

- 17M verified humans
- Payment rails for AI agents
- $30T AI economy by 2030

Policy clarity matters.

4/ 💵 Stablecoins hit mainstream:

- $46T transactions (↑106%)
