In my own words

— Ted

<p>I’m a passionate Apparel Design student at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, driven by a curiosity and a hands-on approach to creativity.

Whether it's learning new sewing techniques, reading trend reports for new technologies, building a chair, working on storage systems for NASA, developing AI chatbot, learning a new software, I thrive on learning as a designer. My work is fueled by a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and a commitment to creating thoughtful, user-centered designs that inspire and delight. I’m eager to push boundaries in apparel design by integrating technology with traditional craftsmanship. My goal is to create innovative, sustainable products that enhance lives while redefining how we approach fashion production. Seeking opportunities to create impact in product development. Let's connect and innovate together!</p>
