In My Own Words

I am an Industrial Designer who is passionate about exploring new processes and materials. I believe that good design brings joy to people's lives and can help us overcome some of the gnarly challenges our world faces. I chase winter, play too much disc golf, and croquet is my guilty pleasure.
