Our Philosophy

Modern design approaches provide innovative, marketable, and desirable products for users. But is that good enough?

While individual designers may care about the impacts of their work, the reality is they are seldom prepared with the theory and research to make technology that upholds justice. As a result, justice can be overlooked as a valuable and impactful design goal, and injustice may leave its mark on both community and company.

That’s where Humility Tech comes in. Through our process, your organization will come to learn the justice impact it has on communities, learn how to generate value by implementing justice as a design goal, and equip itself to independently pursue justice.

Ultimately, we believe that good design is a win-win scenario, where those affected by a design are able to live prosperous lives, and companies are able to generate value while meaningfully fulfilling their social and environmental responsibilities.

That pursuit has carried him through an engineering degree, an engineering education graduate program, and culminated in Humility Tech.
