    Howdy! I'm an Industrial Designer based in sunny Austin, TX. After adventure and opportunity took me across the U.S. and up and down the coasts, I've planted roots in the land of cowboy hats and creative vibes.

    Leveraging copious amounts of empathy and observing the moment, I extract insights and opportunities to improve the designs of the objects we interact with. What makes me miserable to watch a good movie with (wait, that person mumbled- I’m pretty sure they something important!) also makes me a keen observer of people and their environments.
