By My DesignI am profoundly driven to improve the human experience.
Design permeates our lives and manifests across all scales: in the clothes we wear; in the food we eat; in the spaces we inhabit; in the way we communicate; and so on. As such—and by its very nature—design is intertwined with culture, religion, relationships, health and well-being, and personal values. Indeed, it is a powerful tool.
With this power comes a responsibility to design honestly, intentionally, and for good. My approach encompasses a combination of empathy and research at its core, affording me a uniquely holistic understanding of users and their experiences. Ultimately, I strive to create impactful solutions that deeply resonate with people and contribute positively to their everyday lives.
A problem is the foundation for change. Good design awaits.
