About
To be a designer is to fabricate solutions to everyday problems. I aim to become a proficient and competent designer so that I may challenge and redefine current markets, be able to communicate effectively, and connect the world and people around me with new and exciting experiences.
I find great joy in exploring the Outdoor Lifestyle and hope to further myself in the field, as well as in fabrication, and everyday objects that increase the quality of life for those who identify with the design.
I thrive to create not just artifacts, products, or identity but practical designs that matter. I am a very active person and so I take pride in meaningful design experiences. I want to be a driven designer. -
