I am formerly a fine art fabricator, industrial designer, and winemaker turned digital product designer & researcher.

My vocation is to bring honesty, joy and beauty into my work; by using disparate elements of visual interest, words, and sounds to curate a feeling- in design and art- that invokes intention, balance, and purpose. In the coming years, I plan to grow with my work and myself while collaborating with people through creative strategy and collaboration.
