DALLAS, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- MeSpace, a Hollman Inc. company that designs and manufactures modern, adaptive workstations to help unlock human potential, today announced the appointment of Dr. Gokul Krishnan as Chief Learning Scientist. In this new role, Dr. Krishnan will help advance the mission of MeSpace as the preeminent workstation that creates environments where neurodiverse professionals flourish in the workplace.

"As companies rethink office design for the future of work, Gokul's appointment signals important momentum in the market," said Travis Hollman, founder and CEO of MeSpace. "His expertise in neuroscience, learning, and design aligns perfectly with our goal: to create environments that don't just accommodate difference—but empower it. We believe innovation begins with understanding how people really think, feel, and work. Gokul's leadership will ensure we stay ahead in designing for that future."

A recognized pioneer in neuroinclusive design, Dr. Krishnan previously led initiatives at Google where he developed neuroscience-based strategies to foster cognitive diversity and emotional resilience in the workplace. His groundbreaking research, Designing for States of Being, explored how environments designed with intention can reduce cognitive overload and support psychological safety.

"As a learning scientist, I've spent my career studying how people grow, adapt, and heal. Now, I have the opportunity to bring that research into workspace design—an area with enormous potential for impact."
