Design by Fire, Utrecht, NL | 04.12.2016
I was born and raised in Seattle. I love the Pacific Northwest; the rain, the mountains, the ocean, the silver sky, the warm Augusts, the salmon, the gentle nature of folks that live here.
My list of interests beyond my family and design are extensive. These are the highest contenders: skiing, gaming (video and board), woodworking, hiking, photography, travel, and food. I enjoy fixing things, breaking things (oops!), making things, and improving things.
I don’t have a traditional design background. I am always seeking out my next moment of learning. Learning from others has and always will make me a better designer.
I always seek out the big picture. I ask many questions, and look for answers where I can find them. I use metaphor and analogy to help convey the big picture to people I engage with.
