Hi there, I'm Elena! I’m currently pursuing a B.S. in Product Design and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University. I'm deeply passionate about the world of product design, whether it's crafting hardware or software. What truly captivates me is a product's remarkable potential to ignite joy and enhance lives. Beyond my studies, I lead the women's varsity squash team and get hands-on at the Product Realization Lab. My upbringing, spanning diverse locations from Brussels, Helsinki, Amsterdam, Tokyo, to Seattle, has instilled in me a natural curiosity and a genuine love for exploring various cultures and languages, enabling me to approach design with an open mind and create meaningful solutions. I
look forward to further embracing the limitless possibilities that the world of product design has to offer, whether it’s need-finding to mass production or anything in between!
