I had the privilege of working for very high-profile clients, such as Chanel, Nike, Jim Beam, Mazda, Facebook, and more.
This Nike event involved a series of different designs, builds, and installations. Here, I was involved on the build and installation teams.

This project for Mazda required a very short turn-around time. My experience working with fabrics proved essential as I quickly and meticulously covered the base without wrinkles before the walls and lighting could be installed.
This Mazda project beautifully lit up Hollywood Boulevard.
For this luxury skin-care brand, I designed the build and produced the fabrication drawings in Solidworks for this display wall.
From a client sketch, I created the layout and positioning of all features on this display wall using Solidworks.
For this Jim Beam display, I designed and built this entire structure, including inventing my own strategy for fabricating the shutters in a single day. The stage needed to be strong yet lightweight, so I drew inspiration from bridges to design the internal structure. (See image directly below.)
Drawing inspiration from bridges, I saw this stage sub-floor project through from ideation all the way through the CNC machine and final fabrication,
I was part of the fabrication team on this additional piece for Jim Beam.
Installed at Chanel's Beverly Hills location, I designed the stage (left) and was part of the design and install team for the entire project. I also drew on my woodworking experience to on-site problem solve when the black "Cs" (right) were too small for the structures.

Exercises in Translation: From Client Concept to Deliverable

Working in Los Angeles, I've had the opportunity to work for high-profile clients.

This process took extensive creative problem solving. My role involved translating client concepts into actual fabrication processes and drawings in Solidworks.

From there, I transferred the files to the CNC machine and ran the programs.

After the design phase, I was also part of the build and installation teams.
