PROFILE

Two things i enjoy the most, the great outdoors and  getting my hands dirty. I am very hands-on with my work, To truly understand a product you must fully immerse yourself into its process. I’ve designed a couple of products that certainly put a smile on people’s faces. and somehow that has always been my goal; to let people experience beauty through my work. My designs show a wide variety of taste. From high-end to playful and interactive designs, whichever is the best way the prod-uct creates an emotional impact to the user.  I’d like to contribute to society thru sustainability and innovation. I persevere in making things possible because I’m driven in turning ideas into reality.
