At a young age I showed talent for painting. I stayed with visual arts through grade school and eventually founded a company with my brother that leveraged my visual talents. We created a longboard company and offered custom boards each of which I designed and hand painted. Founding this company introduced me to graphic design, product design, marketing, and fabrication.

As an undergraduate I contributed to many projects at the ArtSciLab. In the lab I met a diverse group of people from many different cultures, countries, and life experiences.

I want to develop and launch digital tools that generate value. I believe successful UX Design values user demands over wants and needs. I want to blend interface design with the study of psychology and economics to create products that are both usable and satisfy the bottom line.
