My name is Romy, I am an architect, designer and technologist from Beirut. I  graduated with a Master in Design Studies in Technology from the Harvard’s Graduate School of Design where I learnt spatial computing, tangible interfaces and new forms of social media.

I am passionate about understanding the impact of digital technology on  human relationships, behavior and physical/digital identity, and explore this field through speculation and computation. Since graduating, I held a  research position at the Laboratory for Design Technologies where I led the development of community co-design tools and am currently an XR designer at Magic Leap.

I am formally trained as an architect, with a Bachelor of Architecture from the American University of Beirut. My previous professional experience includes design consultancy at Dar Group, and more recently creative technology in places like Supernormal and CannonDesign.
