About
I have a BS in Industrial Design. I focus on user centered design and innovation through simplicity and loopholes. I'm a passionate person obsessed with designing products that solve everyday problems for people.
Since before I could talk, I have been sketching and creating things.
My love for art eventually lead me to a love of design. I started out designing and fabricating apparel. but I wanted a medium between design and engineering. When I discovered industrial design, it was perfect.
