ABOUT & CONTACT

I work at the intersection of design and strategy—not as a generalist, but as a builder.

With a cross-disciplinary background and a master’s in product design, I create pieces that enrich interiors and enhance lives. And throughout my career, I’ve built stories and visuals that elevate ideas into brand-defining assets with cultural and commercial traction.

Bridging big-picture and hands-on execution, I move ideas through research, prototyping, materials, and production to create work that's viable, resonant, and brand-aligned.

As the devil’s advocate colleagues secretly dread—but still seek out—I ask hard questions to sharpen the work. And then I keep digging—for the angle, the specificity, or the unexpected ingredient that makes it click.

The result? I build sticky things—products, stories, impressions that land and last.

CB2 — teaser video for a self-initiated product line, featuring flying dogs.

CREAM — vase collection developed with NASA engineer insight, sold internationally.

Shade Store — independently developed brand strategy centered on shaping light.

I thrive in collaboration and am pursuing roles in product design and development, brand strategy, and creative marketing.

Based in Los Angeles, and open to relocating to Austin or working remotely.
