Norah Li (Landscape Research Assistant)

I am a fourth year Landscape Architecture Major with a History Minor. I am interested in how historical landscapes and landscape design can teach us more about our current and past environments, values, and relationships.

Jake Glidden (Landscape Research Assistant)

Hello! My name is Jake Glidden and I’m a senior studying Environmental Science with a specialization in Ecosystem Restoration. I love learning about different ecosystems and the intricate parts that make them a large, healthy organism. Specifically, I enjoy researching and identifying plant species (because they don’t move), especially trees. In the future, I plan to do work in vegetation monitoring and native plant restoration. 

Pavel Belyanskiy (Art & Technology Assistant)

Hi, I’m Pavel Belyanskiy—a senior in Landscape Architecture at The Ohio State University Knowlton School of Architecture. I originally began my academic journey in computer science, but my passion for technology and design led me to landscape architecture, where I now pursue a path that I plan to extend with a master’s in architecture. I joined the Lost Waters project because I believe immersive technology is a powerful tool for connecting us to our environmental and historical roots. I’m excited to merge my passion for technology, design, and history to create immersive experiences that inspire a sustainable future.
