About

As a kid I wanted to be an inventor. I still take things apart to see how they work.

That curiosity took me to Webb Institute for naval architecture and marine engineering, then nearly a decade engineering vessels in Seattle, then an MS in Industrial Design at ArtCenter. After that I was Creative Director and Head of Engineering at ArtGlo, and now I'm a project manager and designer at Bowerbird Builders, scoping and designing residential renovations.

Two people sit on my shoulder while I work. Dieter Rams, for function you can see. Tom Sachs, for construction you can see. I want things to read as made by hand and by feel, and to hold up after that.
