About

Design / Visualization for evolved sensibilities

I am a motivated individual that focuses on subtlety in design. I did my undergraduate at Humber College's Industrial Design degree program in 2008 after completing co-op work terms at Teknion and NLNovalink.

In 2008, I started working for NLnovalink as a product manager. In 2010, I moved into the role of marketing/media manager/visualizer. In 2011, I decided to pursue a career in ArchViz. Communication and problem solving are my most notable assets.

My clients are: Bluetree Homes, Brand Momentum, Cordon Media, More Automation Solutions
