MEET THE DESIGNER
WHO I AM
Some people say life is a roller coaster—and I took that literally.
I’ve been known to plan entire trips just to ride a specific one. (Formula Rossa at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, to be exact.)
My own path has followed a similar ride. From the steady, upward climb of my academic journey toward an architecture degree, to the sudden drop into the fast-paced world of transportation design, and the unexpected twists and turns that led me into karting and motorsports—it’s been one exhilarating loop after another.
I grew up in the suburbs of Northern California, exactly halfway between the beach and the mountains, and the beach won the debate over where I’d study architecture. It wasn’t until my year abroad in Florence, however, that I realized my true passion lies with everything in motion.
My story has been quite a journey. Let me help you along yours.
DESIGN TENETS
Detail.
Beauty can be found even in the smallest things. I develop projects holistically, with every element weaving together into an intricate tapestry.
Story.
We celebrate designs that are dramatic or eye-catching, but they are so much more appreciable when they say something.
Identity.
Each company, each team, each design has its own personality and aesthetic. New projects should respect this while seeking to evolve for the future.
