About

Portrait of Alexandra Citra

I studied Cognitive Science/HCI and Literature at UC San Diego. One taught me how people think, the other how they create narratives. Since then I've worked in the space between designing products that make sense and telling stories that make people care. I love working on solutions that don't belong to a single region or discipline.
