"Early into my professional education I became primarily focused on minimalism and simplicity. I realize the value in both as related to product design yet I am not limited to either. I find that most of my successful designs exhibit a quality of versatility in their function. I attempt to find viable solutions to a number of criteria while not overpowering the object in its usage or form. This is constantly the result of an in depth analysis of human factors and user needs."
