Creating Products That Matter

With a background and passion for entrepreneurship, I have always been interested in the intersection of design and business. I believe that design has the power to transform the world, and I am committed to building the future. A good designer knows how to sell their ideas, and an entreprenuer knows the value of empathy. It is not just about finding a solution to the problem, but also about getting a deeper understanding of the problem and the people involved. My aim is to create products that break through the saturated market, and make a difference in the places that really matter.

My design approach focuses on the user and real-world application. Whether working on concepts or consumer products, I focus on the details that make designs functional, creative, and ready for manufacturing.

When I'm not designing, you'll find me restoring motorcycles or exploring new parks and trails. I believe hands-on experience with tools and materials makes me a more well-rounded designer and thinker, and spending time outdoors is a great way to reflect and think deeply about the world we live in.
