Celena's Playground

designing for a more empathetic community...

"Hi, I'm Celena, a junior studying Design + Environmental Analysis at Cornell University pursuing her side interests through minors in Information Science (UX), Psychology, and Business."

I love meeting new people and psychoanalyzing how their stories affect their goals and behaviors. In more recent years, I have observed how the competitiveness of industries can overshadow the human-centric aspects of design that cater towards people's stories. This has sparked and continues to fuel my passion for design as I aim to bring people together and foster meaningful interactions, creating a closer and more empathetic community.
