I am a dreamer, a wanderer, and a story-teller.
As a designer, I am adaptable. I think in modular forms and am obsessed with repetition and pattern. I am someone who is close to my roots, personal and thoughtful in my design. I draw inspiration from my travels and adventures, whether it be hiking, star-gazing, or trying new food. To me, design is about telling stories, challenging norms, and seeing new perspectives. I love breaking out of my comfort zone and coloring outside the lines.
My work dances between art, spaces, furniture, and fashion. I see myself working in a place that drives on collaboration and cross-pollination between different types of expertise. I long to create immersive spaces and objects that tell stories and shift perspectives. I believe that through design we can inspire, connect, and heal.

I want to be impactful. I want to design the idea that drives the project.’” says Environmental Design Chair David Mocarski.
