About
Alyssa joined EDI to empower her to change lives by using whole-brain engineering to design impactful services, products, and experiences. She loves human-centered design because it goes beyond just engineering to engineering things that matter by synthesizing technical theory with creativity, innovation, and social excellence.
Why EDI?
An artist by nature, Alyssa knows she needs to be creative on a daily basis. Pairing this right-brained inclination with a left-brained technical education in mechanical engineering provided her with a new love for engineering, design, and innovation.
