Kicked a soccer ball most of my life, still learning to surf after 20 years, perfecting dad jokes (ask my daughter). Founded a nonprofit close to my heart, putting my architecture degree to use on home renovations. Happiest under the stars or tinkering in my shop.

Listen First, Design Second
Great design starts with uncovering and understanding user needs and allowing those needs to inform design decisions.

Creativity Through Constraints
The tighter the constraints, the more creativity is required. Manufacturing limitations and material properties are half the fun.

Grounded In Craft
Working with my hands, sketching, collaborating, and building is essential. Regardless of my role, I believe in leading by example.

Design Delivers Equity
Designing for accessibility is a responsibility, not an option. Inclusive experiences ensure no one is left behind, and often spark the most innovative solutions.
