ABOUT KELSEY
Kelsey Wakefield is an interactive landscape architect and product designer focused on environmental systems and our relationship to them. With investigative curiosity and a fun-centric approach to complex issues, Kelsey looks into how systems can be catalysts of social change, policy evolution and new technologies. A graduate from Rhode Island School of Design’s MLA program with an focus in digital media, she emphasizes a hands on interdisciplinary approach utilizing technology to gamify public process and build awareness of our delicately interconnected relationship with the world around us.
A known adventurer, Kelsey was raised in rural Alaska, steeped in the nuance of natural systems and the ecological services they provide, yet always paradoxically entranced by human built infrastructures and their critical impact on modern life. She is currently looking to collaborate with scientists, engineers, and designers to create meaningful intelligent public infrastructures which inform, protect and provide for the people who use them.
