My name is Eric Guo. I am a product designer with a background in marketing and communications. Before joining MHCI, I worked as a product designer at a startup and a design intern at a 4A advertising agency. Oh, by the way, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is my favorite video game.

Hi! My name is Felix Liu and I am an aspiring designer with a background in Cognitive Science. I believe that human centered design can help designers to solve wicked problems. Good solutions are backed by good research and empathy, and I enjoy finding the right questions to ask. Outside of school, you can find me exploring the outdoors or supporting my favorite soccer team, Arsenal.
Hi, I’m Ritu! Working towards an user experience design role, I come from a background in mechanical engineering and worked as a process engineer.

We are Birds & Bees, a group of graduate students at Carnegie Mellon University in the (MHCI) program. Our goal is to meet people where they are at, understand their pain points and joys, and build off our understanding to design solutions that meet their needs and improve lives.
The MHCI program is a rigorous 12-month graduate degree, including an 8-month long capstone project. The Capstone Project is an opportunity for us as students to apply what we’ve learned while collaborating on a real problem as an interdisciplinary team with our client and affected stakeholders. From January to August 2019, we will be working closely with Talk to research and design a solution that will help Sam and her team do what they do best.
