Present
I make sure that the products we design are both safe and easy to use.
Past
M.S. Industrial Engineering, with a focus on Occupational Safety and Ergonomics, The Ohio State University
B.S. Mechanical Engineering, The Ohio State University
Passion
Safety by design. It is easy to provide warnings and cautions for products which can be dangerous, but it is much more rewarding to come up with ways to eliminate these hazards altogether.
Play
I love to travel, but sitting on a couch and watching Netflix for hours can be just as satisfying.
What is your first memory of design thinking?
Working on a school project with my dad. I had to build some sort of Rube Goldberg machine... I forget what it did, but I remember lighting a match somewhere in the process.
