ARCHITECTURE / ENGINEERING
Developing huge projects like buildings and environments from nothing more than a small what-if idea is a joy and strength of mine. From “napkin sketch” to countless iterations of digital and physical prototypes — I have lead projects in architecture from design phase to seeing the last bolt fastened on site. I now design for civil, environmental, and geotechnical engineering projects that bring entire city blocks to life. From drone survey data and engineering calculations, I work as part of a team developing CAD models for the foundations of skyscrapers and miles of public roadway for large-scale land development projects. Both pursuits have pushed the way I visualize 3D design, space, and end use in these expansive environments. I am clear, concise, and accurate for client facing renderings while quick and whimsical for internal concept development. No matter the project or scale, I love seeing these ideas come to life.

INDUSTRIAL DESIGN
As an Industrial Designer I work with clients and companies to bring products to market at the height of their design evolution. I work on everything from concept automotive hardware design to cast made physical therapy devices that help ease overuse and prevent injuries in the work place. Using a range of computational CAD software and physical prototyping, I push to maximize a product’s potential for the end user to be in love with their experience.
ARTWORK
ARTWORK
I have been an exhibiting artist for the past 15 years. My work is primarily figurative and focuses on existential narratives that what it’s like to be here and just live through it.
SCULPTURE
Sculpture
From welding to ceramics, making 3d art gives me a chance to create physical translations of the world I see around me.
PHOTOGRAPHY
Photography
I often create fluid “sculptures” with inks or aqueous materials and I use photography to document their change throughout the process. I also love photography as a base for more graphic projects — as the base for a kind of digital painting that then gets manipulated with creative software.
I am an exhibiting artist, designer, and project manager with a decade of design experience working in art, graphic design, industrial design, architecture, and engineering. I am balanced between a foundation in fine arts which requires strong conceptual rationale and an aesthetic eye and my work experience in technical design fields which requires precision, math, and technical know-how of software that lets you see before you do. My goal as a creative is to let the two sides influence each other in order to bring shape to something hopefully unique and beautiful while also sleek and functional — the left and right brain, artistry to the technical, and precisions to the conceptual and artistic.
