Sandra Nam is the Chief Executive Officer for QiqoChat. Trained in human-centered design and project management, her goal is to advance the real-world impact of empathy tech and community building.

Sandra designed and organized CUT | FILL 2020, the first Open Space unConference for landscape architecture. The participant-led event drew over 650 students, professionals, and academics on QiqoChat to discuss critical issues in the field and determined action initiatives and plans for making change during a global pandemic and social upheaval. She continues to provide this community of designers space for open discussions and opportunities to make change for the public realm.
