KALI RAE FRANCISCO is a digital designer, artist and programmer studying computer science & user experience design @ UMich. With a lot of my work being set in the education technology space, providing equal opportunities to learning and lowering the barriers to entry for higher education are consistently important to me.

Right now, I’m helping build design systems part time @ NeuraFlash, teaching teach web dev @ UMSI, and freelance designing for student founded startups.
