About
From her beginnings in civic tech, Krizia found her place in UX/Product Design, by attending, hosting and sometimes winning hackathons in New York City. In the Fall of 2017, she went on to pursue her graduate degree in Interaction Design at NYU Tisch School of the Arts – ITP.
While in grad school, the Red Burns Scholar pitched a startup idea, Femmecubator, which became a finalist at the NYU Leslie eLab Summer Accelerator.
Krizia is currently working in IoT, designing smart apps and systems that transform homes and work spaces.
