Isabella was a member of the graduating class of 2025.
She was a Cognitive Science major and DMP student in the PACT Lab. She joined TYDE’s inaugural student research group in the summer of 2024 and served as a consultant on the Light House Summer Film Internship, helping high school students discover engaging ways to discuss mental health while using social media. Wanting to understand more about this complex intersection, she then joined the TYDE Youth Hackathon as a designer and team ambassador. Her team, a mix of high school and UVA students, conceptualized the browser extension, “Algora,” which was selected for further development by UVA’s Engineering Department.
Isabella hopes to work with adolescents as a Clinical Psychologist in the future.
