Alexis Hope Biography
Dr. Alexis Hope is an award-winning artist, designer, and researcher from MIT. Her research focuses on how joy and play can unlock our creativity and help us find purpose, meaning, and connection with others.
With over a decade of experience as a designer and researcher at one of MIT’s most creative research centers — the MIT Media Lab — Hope has worked on projects ranging from cameras for deep-sea exploration, creative learning technologies for children, artistic tools for zero-gravity environments in space, low-cost ultrasound machines for reducing maternal mortality in areas with limited resources, and much more. She believes that the best ideas come from an interdisciplinary approach, and that by leaning into joy and play, we can unlock our creativity to solve the toughest problems.
Currently, Hope serves as the Creative Director of TEN FWD — a consultancy that helps clients design playful, experimental objects and social experiences. She is also a co-founder of focused (www.focused.space), a mindfulness company that helps remote workers reach their personal and professional goals in community with others. Hope brings expertise in deep technology, art and design, community building, and more.
