About

Freelance designer of industrial made products, eyewear and handmade concepts based in Los Angeles, CA. I have been working with the eyewear industry for 8 years creating sunglasses and optical styles for mass market. I have developed skills in creating concept to final production designs in multiple materials. Experience with working one on one with factory engineers to explore limitations and strengths of production, technique and manufacturability. Ability to understand fashion and licensed brands and target markets for licensed product for various age groups and style demographics. Along with creating for industry I personally enjoy making and designing lifestyle products for the home and garden exploring natural material such as wood, ceramics and plants.
