The E-Lab, or Empathy Lab, was designed by 500 students and community donors.
The Empathy lab was built to serve the needs of students post-COVID-19 shutdown. The lab was designed to help students heal, create, and gain power over their lives through multimedia use and control through DESIGN. This program was created during a very uncertain time for the school. We worked with the UN 14 Goals Microsoft content, Bezos Family Foundations' World Needs Program, and our curriculum.

The E-Lab, or Empathy Lab, was designed by 500 students and community donors.
The Empathy lab was built to serve the needs of students post-COVID-19 shutdown. The lab was designed to help students heal, create, and gain power over their lives through multimedia use and control through DESIGN. This program was created during a very uncertain time for the school. We worked with the UN 14 Goals Microsoft content, Bezos Family Foundations' World Needs Program, and our curriculum. We consider these programs and critical donors from the community to have brought the children in our laboratory toward healing during this period. The Bezos Family Foundation helped us erect a powerful freeway billboard with the kids' intentions for equity in education, which gave our children a place to have power during a powerless COVID era. The school has closed the E-Lab as it states that the most intense COVID-19 recovery period has ended. This program is an example of "just in time" education, which I am proud to have been a part of designing. Show less

Participated and helped build curriculum for Google Expeditions. Since May 2016, over a million students have taken part in a virtual tour via the program. Our educational institution hosted multiple trainings for teachers where I facilitated trainings.

Medical professionals, Medical Technology Experts, medical device inventors, and Biotech leaders such as Dr. Bischofberger, famously known as the inventor of "Tamiflu" and the Pandemic H1N1 (swine flu). Scientists and Inventors were featured as workshop experts for upper-grade students who learned about 21st-century healthcare and innovation.

This startup support group is an educational group for new and experienced teachers, or educators who impact the learning platform in their careers. It seeks to bring together any and all teachers, institutions, businesses, nonprofits, startups, home schooling networks,and adjunct resources and experts who seek to improve education.

Students adapted The San Jose Technology Museum's Tech Challenge Competition to implement its individual district competition, where each school built a scale prototype of the Museum's competition "rig." Students prototype trials are performed on the "rig" to improve design through hands-on trials, research, and development. The distinguished Robert Grimm of Hewlett Packard and official Scientist/Designer and Board Member of the Tech Museum's annual Technology Challenge volunteered as an expert… Show more

Many community members volunteered and contributed to various events related to the Tech Design Challenges. Show less

Access to Education: Environmental Education
Ecology and Environmental Education through interactive technology simulation programs utilizing accurate data collection, geography, and research archives. Computer Interactive gaming informs instruction and learning online.

Students collaborated with Dr. Seiler and V.Tree App to learn about Trees and the importance of Conservation. The V. Tree App allows field Scientists to identify species of trees as well as log findings.

The I-Lab was founded in The Hillsborough Schools. Goals to teach students how to "make and innovate" with the Stanford D School's Design Thinking tenants. This project lab was the first"STEAM" lab of its kind in the public school system on the SF Peninsula.
