About Me

My career as a product designer has been focused on furthering how humans interact with digital interfaces. This journey has taken me through building computer vision platforms, mobile-AR applications, virtual-reality enterprise tools and AI-powered 3D content platforms.

I am lucky enough that my hobby has become my career, but I do enjoy other things. I play basketball, love a good hike and enjoy building furniture or making shoes!

Design Principles

"What we make stands testament to who we are. And what we make describes our values. It describes beautifully, succinctly, our preoccupation."
