Conceptual Designer

As a willful youngster, I first pursued design opportunities in the block piles, sandboxes, and crayon bins of Nielsen Elementary. I never ate the paste, rather, I always applied it with tact. Continued interest in aesthetics led me from the Bay Area to San Diego to Northern Ireland, and back to San Francisco, where I currently live and work.

I've enjoyed experiences across various fields, working with diverse media and clientele. I value precision, efficiency, and order, though my workspace seldom reflects it. I'm an ambitious and insightful designer with much to learn.
