My favorite thing to do is explore. Ideas, cities, cultures, the bookstore…it doesn’t take much to capture my curiosity.
That’s what I love most about being a designer - opportunities to learn are never in short supply. I’ve been fortunate enough to explore the playground industry, the manufacturing and material production industries, and the architectural industry. Over the course of these experiences, I’ve routinely found myself drawn to the place where human-centered design meets complex systems. I find the relationship between human needs and the systems we create endlessly fascinating, and I hope I have the chance to explore this dynamic as my career progresses.
