About
Hi! I’m Farah.
I am an illustrator, animator and designer from San Francisco interested in the intersection of the arts, sciences and humanities. I previously worked with Osso VR, where I created anatomical models for VR surgical training and led multiple projects.
I completed my Masters of Biomedical Communications (MScBMC) at the University of Toronto where I trained in medical visualization and scientific storytelling. I use my interdisciplinary background in academic research and the creative arts to communicate difficult topics to diverse audiences, and solve complex visual problems.
In 2021, I concluded my time as the inaugural Artist in Residence at UCSF where I worked on an animated data visualization project “The City is a Body: Systemic Vulnerabilities in the Time of COVID-19.” You can read more about the project through the UCSF library website, and KQED.
In my spare time, you can catch me in the city facilitating figure drawing sessions with Sketchboard Co!
