TEAM 11

I’m Edwin Rutsch, Director of the Center for Building a Culture of Empathy. I've done the prototyping and Design Kit course several times. I'm interested in how we can design empathic school cultures

Daniel Martin-Mora

Hi everyone,

My name is Daniel (you can call me "Dani" to avoid confusions with the other Daniel), originally from Spain but currently living in Arizona (USA.) Yes, it´s insanely hot...Most of my work is in the development (a term open to many interpretations) field. I also have been teaching on the side for the last 10 years.

I´ve taken a couple of design thinking courses and am very excited about prototyping. I´m a socioeconomics addict, a social scientist wannabe, and love animals. I´d love to apply the knowledge in the social entrepreneurship, humanitarian or animal welfare fields. Looking forward to working with you all.
