Work it Out Wombats!
PBS KIDS
Teaching computational thinking to preschoolers
“With an educational focus on critical thinking and creative problem solving using computational thinking, WORK IT OUT WOMBATS! is a new animated preschool series that follows the adventures of a playful marsupial sibling trio—Malik, Zadie and Zeke—who live with their grandmother in the Treeborhood, a fantastical treehouse apartment complex, home to a diverse community of animal neighbors.”
Over the past year, I have worked as the lead games designer for this new series on PBS Kids.

This game introduces a preschool-friendly coding interface that allows kids to build a variety of toys.
Road Repair
Players solve shape-based puzzles to help Zeke travel across tree branches in the Treeborhood. For this game, I led the UX and visual design, as well as contributed character animation and illustrated assets.
