MsKanana Mwenda

Innovator, researcher, and educator from Nairobi, Kenya, now based in Melbourne, Australia, specialising in wearable technology, digital fabrication, and 3D design. Currently pursuing a PhD in health wearable technologies at Deakin University. I merge human-centric design with advanced e-textiles to transform personal health and rehabilitation. My practice integrates sensors, actuators, and microcontrollers to create interactive, responsive experiences with a strong focus on design for health and wearability.

As an educator, I have taught and supported courses on wearable technology, physical computing, design thinking, and digital fabrication at Toronto Metropolitan University and OCAD University, Canada.
