About Me

I am a passionate product design engineer with an interest in materials, processes, and anthropometrics. I enjoy exploring the use of different and unique materials in my projects as well as how to best utilize their strengths and weaknesses. Along with this, I am always curious about the manufacturing process and how I can better design for it. In recent years I have also picked up an interest in user-centered design and how I can better tailor my designs for a more equitable experience.

With my excellent communication skills and leadership qualities, I’m equipped to be a great part of any team. I have a highly technical thought process and a keen eye for detail. Having collaborated in the past with designers, engineers, mechanics, and machinists, I am capable of working to fully realize any project.
