About Me

I'm a multidisciplinary designer with experience merging skills and methods from various fields to solve problems and develop creative solutions. Curiosity is in my DNA - I'm always eager to learn and grow my skillset. I enjoy working in collaborative environments but I'm also comfortable owning individual assignments. I'm experienced with both traditional and CNC fabrication methods as well as material selection and sourcing, electronics, and basic coding. I've worked on a variety of projects involving a range of skills including prototyping, test engineering, research, and Interaction Design.
