About

I am an industrial designer and Master’s candidate at the Academy of Art University, specializing in automotive design with a growing emphasis on off-road and outdoor-oriented vehicles. My multidisciplinary background spans graphic design, UI/UX, brand identity, packaging, production, and industrial design, allowing me to approach projects with both creative range and user-focused precision. Originally from Chicago and currently based in a mountain region, my environment and lifestyle influence my design sensibility—driving a passion for durable, performance-oriented design solutions tailored to real-world adventure.
