Whether I realized it or not, my design career started back in 1997 when I entered the world. From adding an extra tablespoon of chocolate milk mix, wearing two pairs of socks for both style and function, to adjusting pockets on a pair of pants to be more ergonomic for my needs, I have been designing my life experience. I hope my work inspires others to find their inner creativity in whatever medium they choose.
I am a designer and creator who likes to know the "why" of the world. I believe in honest, hard work, and that the end user drives this process. I believe that life is meant to be enjoyed, and that a positive attitude can make any job worthwhile.
Born and raised in Utah, I feel like a late bloomer to the outdoor industry. Only since my high school years have I discovered the thrills of hiking, skiing, climbing, camping, and exploring the beautiful earth that we live in. I love my wife, quality gear, a good laugh, and this wonderful life I have.
