One year ago:
I was just beginning my journey of combining social impact + tech. My focus was on genetic engineering for ecosystem engineering and space. I did my first technical presentation. This was my newsletter.
Today:
I've done deep dives into carbon sequestration, the future of food, biomimicry, and energy. I've done 8+ talks, fostered new relationships, and learned a lot more about myself (how to spend my time, what matters...).
As expected, a lot has changed.
I'd like to reintroduce myself:
I'm Adara. I call myself a futurist, designer, and explorer.
I'm 17 years old. If I had to describe myself in one word it would be: curious.
My focuses (areas I am the most curious and excited about) are:
πEnvironment - sustainability, biodiversity, etc.
πExploration - space, marine, and terrestrial. Curiosity deep dives.
π¨Design (with an emphasis on biomimicry) - problem-solving + art
At the intersection of all my focuses is closed-loop systems.
My mission is to help design closed-loop communities for earth + space.
