Title
Industrial Designer
Present
I love thinking about the future. What are people going to need, going to value, and going to want next year or in 10 years? Creating the products and services that give people these things is what I do.
Past
I graduated from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design with a bachelor’s degree in Industrial Design.
Passion
I hope to make a positive difference through my designs, conversations, and actions.
Play
By day I teach yoga over lunch at work. By night I enjoy teaching and performing different Latin dances.
What is your first memory of design thinking?
Taping feathers to my arms and jumping off my parents deck when I was 5. Then getting up and trying more feathers when it didn’t work the first time.
