About
I enjoy consulting with companies to identify the "blind spots" of their products and services. Finding the opportunities for innovation is my day to day pleasure.
Currently, I'm happily bringing Modos Furniture to the mass market.
My goal is to make EcoSystems Brand an umbrella company for three markets; furniture, interiors, and off the grid housing. Currently included under the umbrella is Modos, a modular furniture system and EcoSystems Interiors, specializing in creative solutions for inspired clients. The third market, off the grid housing, is currently being researched.
