My idea is of a better way to deal with group idea/sketch sharing during the ideation process. From recent experience, it has been most difficult to find a way to focus on a single team direction. My presentation linked below is an idea for a new way to make this a simpler process.

Experience
I am studying Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Product Design. My education is in engineering but I have an extensive knowledge of Graphic Design and Typography. I am an Adobe Illustrator Certified Expert and can communication visually better than verbally. Most of the products I have made in the last couple years have been for visually disabled users.
Why
I use CAD software in everything I do from making a poster to making a product. The common ways to interact with these programs is still based on point and click mouses. For the health of my hands, since most of my work involves being in front of a computer screen, I want to explore new ways to work on computers. I want to find more natural and healthy ways to design.
