About
Born in Minnesota. Loved the snow. Moved to Maryland for two years. Parent’s divorced and moved back to Minnesota. Grew up a little, started liking girls, started writing. Stopped wearing baggy pants. Spent two weeks in Cuba, got into college, moved to Philly, wasted a year, got into philosophy and became an intellectual. Got my heart broken, fell in love with design. Finally found some purpose. Became obsessed with my work, realized the potential. Time to make it happen.

SKILLS AND ACTIVITIES
-I have worked to absorb a multidisciplinary skill set. I believe that gaining different perspectives gives a higher meaning to my design work. Included in these skills are photography, painting, sewing and macramé, wood working, model making, molding processes, public speaking, organizational and leadership skills, and I am an enthusiast of modern culture. I am also a leading and active member of Philadelphia University's chapter of the Industrial Design Society of America.
