About
I thrive on building a deep understanding about users and then designing the best possible experience for them. Whether physical, digital or both the experience is what drives my designs. User research is a big part of my process. My inspiration and design principles for a given project often develop out of consumer research. There is nothing that I enjoy more in design than building prototypes and getting the prototypes into the hands of real people for feedback.
