ON SEEING
ON SEEING
We live within systems and narratives that dictate how we see and move through the world. From the algorithms that curate our feeds to the social scripts that shape how we think and act, our perspectives are increasingly narrowed by prewritten prompts.
BEYOND THE SCRIPTS
Join us to decode our world: the objects we hold, the systems we navigate, and the potential we carry beneath it all. Grounded in research, teens will learn about how concepts drive our thinking and practice 'seeing' beyond the surface with curiosity and possibilities.

MEET THE INSTRUCTOR
After a decade in the corporate world, I began to see how the “scripts” we inherit shape the way we live, work, and relate. When I transitioned into education, it became clear that the subject we are taught to understand the least is often the one that matters most: our human experience.
The search for deeper insight into our human wiring and sense of purpose led me to Harvard’s Human Development and Education program, where I explored our innate capacity while also questioning the outdated theories and systems that may be limiting our growth and potential.
Witnessing the impact of AI on cognition and the challenges faced in a tech-driven society, what today’s youth need most is still largely missing from our K-12 system. As a parent of two teenagers, I feel this urgency not just professionally, but personally.
Through my work, I bridge theory and research with the unscripted realities of modern life. I help teens and adults uncover the unseen structures shaping their thoughts, choices, and behaviors to reclaim the potential hidden beneath their narratives.
