About Allie Myerson

Allie Myerson is a rising high school senior and a native New Yorker with a strong interest in the intersection of technology, psychology, and human behavior. Her work is driven by a curiosity about how people interact with technology in their everyday lives, and how those interactions can be made more meaningful, accessible, and human-centered.

That interest has been present from an early age. In first grade, when asked to invent something, Allie created the "Technolatree," a simulated tree designed for parks where people could charge their devices while still enjoying nature without disruption. Even then, she was beginning to explore how technology could coexist with real-world experiences in thoughtful ways.
