I find myself part of the new generation of digital designers. Thinking and designing in constructed spaces, redefining the traditional and utilizing the technologies available today to invent tomorrow. Never before has so much of humanity’s intellect been so readily accessible than now, and it’s the perfect time to indulge every sense into discovery.
I’m profoundly influenced by bold graphics, movies, music, and the everyday world. Each day I find myself on a new adventure via books, movies, or my own imagination. Everything is interesting and everything interests me.
