Rachel, 21, undergraduate @ university of california, irvine, studying sociocultural anthropology and informatics (emphasis in human-computer interaction).
I'm interested in user interface design, interaction design, ubiquitous computing, creative programming, e-textiles/wearable technology, remix culture, social media, & film and media studies. I am a DIY enthusiast and hobbyist :)
Loves food, collecting vintage dishes, traveling, Andrew Bird, crocheting, coffee, two hour naps, and sharing comfortable silences.
I have a knack of putting too much on my plate. Both literally and metaphorically.
