Q & A
What led you to become a designer?
I grew up building and making things and went on to study engineering. During my first year of college I found a passion for art that led me to study architecture and then product design.
Tell us about your studio/workspace
I work from my home studio in a Manhattan high-rise overlooking the Hudson River. Half of the space is dedicated to digital work and sketching while the other half is filled with tools and materials for prototyping.
Design with thoughtful execution and a playful approach.
