I practice the art of creating functional products through a combination of keen observation and listening skills.  I’m equally at home ideating with post-it’s, creating high-fidelity digital wireframes, and chatting with the user I’m designing for. 

My education comes from the very source of Design Thinking ideology at the IDEO-founded d.school at Stanford University.  From here I learned to be curious and creative, looking above below and all around  the problem I’m faced with to reach solutions that are truly based in concrete needs. 

In my spare time, I play various musical instruments and currently perform and teach taiko drumming on the weekends.  I enjoy good film and good animation, and was recently hired by my dog to manage her instagram account.  

I’m always excited to hear about new projects.  Please reach out if you’d be interested in making something great together!
