About
Industrial design exists to solve problems and create joy. It is a process that involves delivering evidence and critique. It is a glue that unifies marketing, engineering, and product development. It is the heart that seeks to understand and then to empathize through meaningful solutions. Industrial design is what I do.
Specialties: Industrial Design, lateral thinking, ethnographic research, problem solving, sketching, modeling, rendering, spec drawing, and an understanding of the value and impact of design. -
