I love bringing new products to life, particularly physical products. I do my best work
(and have the most fun) at the
overlap of design
and engineering. I firmly believe the best products
are a result of designers understanding how to build
what they are designing.
Almost all my work experience has been in startups or research studios where I have experience taking multiple ideas from 0 → 1. This has trained me to handle ambiguity, limited resources, and figuring a lot of things out on my own.
Recently back in📍San Francisco and excited for the next opportunity!
If you have any questions, ideas, or just want to “say hey” please send me an e-mail!
