I have fun finding new and unexpected approaches to design problems by switching off assumptions and seeing things differently. I’m a designer, engineer, and founder who has worked on small hardware like wearables, consumer hardware including many of SharkNinja’s recent viral hits, large hardware like modular housing and sonic spheres, and really really large hardware like Apple and Google’s campuses.
I combine engineering rigor with art sensibility, between holding a Stanford engineering masters and being a RISD MFA dropout. I’ve worked on 9 startups including successful exits (and a current one!), so I’m open to early stage involvement.
