Bio

Florence Okoye is a UX and service designer, writer and intersectional futurist, interested in community centred and participatory design practice as an approach for creating new technologies, especially with regards to smart cities and pervasive computing networks. Her work is inspired by speculative design and critical practices, which she aims to incorporate as much in everyday digital experience design as for more experimental projects.

Since 2015, she has been part of AfroFutures_UK, an interdisciplinary collective that explores the intersection of race and critical perspectives on technology.
