Whether I’m designing sneakers, modding my ride, or 3D printing bespoke solutions, I aim to blend performance, aesthetics, and innovation into every project.Here’s what fuels my work: Creative Exploration: Bold questions lead to fresh ideas, and I love pushing boundaries in design. Sustainability: I believe great design is thoughtful, lasting, and mindful of our planet.🤝 Collaboration and Leadership: Whether teaching as Captain of the Cincinnati Bearcat Sailing Team or working in design teams, I value sharing knowledge and learning from diverse perspectives.Recent highlights include: Creating sustainable outdoor products as a Product Designer @Starhaven Teaching and inspiring as Captain of the Cincinnati Bearcat Sailing Team and a Instructor at Crescent Sail Yacht Club Rocking 3D printing to develop DIY solutions to everyday problems Supporting small businesses through development of a unique digital tool @ExcelerateAmericaNow, I’m back at the University of Cincinnati, ready to take on new challenges.
