Powder to Purpose
Collaborators: Archie Forrest, Madeline Abbenda
Spring 2025
Summary
Powder to Purpose explores the environmental impact of ski manufacturing and end-of-life waste, reframing discarded skis as a valuable, durable material rather than landfill-bound trash. Through material research and hands-on prototyping, the project upcycles old skis into functional outdoor products
My Role
I was one of three students working on this highly collaborative project. I had roles in each step of the project, from research, outreach, product design, and presentation.
