About
LIFE IS ABOUT PEOPLE.
My passions revolve around people - understanding them, their individual needs, desires, and comprehending what has to be done to satisfy these. Today’s complex issues require a human-centred, holistic, and problem-oriented approach. And this is the attitude I bring to an organization.

VOLUNTEERING
Stanford University officially announced me as a “University Innovation Fellow”. The University Innovation Fellows program empowers students to become leaders of change in higher education. Fellows are leading a global movement to ensure that all students gain the attitudes, skills and knowledge required to navigate a complex world. In a team of four students, we develop concepts to improve the student experiences at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences.
I have successfully participated in the "Remember Now" Research Project led by the Design Laboratory at the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health. In the Remember Now research project, behaviours are observed, with the goal of designing life after COVID-19. The contribution refers to research activities, including remote subject identification, and remote data gathering, organizing, coding, and uploading.

Even as we move towards a more technology-dominated future, Lara’s empathy and interpersonal communication will continue to be appreciated as they are today.
