Capsule Hack
Hosted in partnership with Experimental Civics, TechTogether, and Earth Hacks, this 2-day virtual conference and hackathon titled Capsule Hack addressed the global climate crisis through inspiration and action. Over the two days, attendees virtually attended a unique mix of keynote speakers, interactive panel discussions, and problem-solving breakouts, which offered attendees the flexibility to explore and create.
Web Design & Development
I designed a website with an interactive project dashboard for Capsule Hack 2020, purposefully crafted to reflect the urgency of the climate crisis and the transformative power of collective action. The design balanced intuitive usability with bold, mission-driven visuals—creating an engaging platform that empowered participants to explore, collaborate, and innovate in real time.
Note: Certain features of the website are no longer live, as the dashboard was created specifically for the hackathon’s duration.

“Maya came into our project at the nick of time and she was my fastest hire yet (within 24 hrs!). Due to COVID-19, we had to pivot a global, world record climate crisis hackathon & conference into an entirely digital experience and we needed talented minds to help build the vision. From her first interview to the completion of the event, Maya was exceptionally detailed, needed little direction, and executed with ease. Maya was not only a team player who merged with our backend and core event team, but she brought new ideas and methods to the table fast. We built the backend within 7 days with a team of four women including myself. A tremendous and outstanding success. Maya performs under pressure and is an excellent addition to your project however ambitious. I give her my highest recommendation for her services, her approach, and perspective.”
