About
As an Industrial Design student at the Savannah College of Art and Design, I truly feel that I have found a way to study my passion. I have always felt a strong inclination towards helping others, and have found that successful and effective design is by far one of the most rewarding ways to do so. I hope to use what I have learned to help make everyday tasks and interactions smoother and more enjoyable for the average consumer.
Within the design process, I am most drawn to design research. I have found that getting to know specific people and their needs makes for a more relevant and personal design solution, which will in turn be more successful. As a student, I will continue to integrate this crucial step into any future projects and endeavors I pursue.
