If I had to guess, I'd say it was growing up the son of a mechanic and aspiring artist that set me on my way. From a very early age I was tearing apart anything and everything. Learning the how and why things worked in the world around me. It's my identity and it's made me who I am today. I am very thankful for that.

I’ve done many things from photography and design to engineering and software development. All of which contain a common thread; creating. My drive to bring things to life keeps me going. An ability to think through, understand and breakdown problems bring fresh ideas and solutions to companies has helped create value for end users and enterprises a like.

Traveling the world meeting people, studying design and most importantly fostering empathy with those around me has instilled a sense of mission in myself. Combined with my varied background brings a unique position to solving people problems by uniting different approaches, industries and knowledge to create innovative human-centered solutions.

Currently I'm working at Herman Miller helping change the way customers interact and experience its digital products and marketing. Ultimately facilitating its mission inspiring designs to help people do great things.
