An education in economics trained me to approach challenges with a uniquely critical lens, fostering a keen iterative ability to identify successful strategies. Studying architecture taught me to further develop that critical lens into a passion for experience, the way places, spaces, and objects are used and understood through the senses. My love of design comes from the fact that it affords the potential to challenge convention, push boundaries and broaden access, where every project is an opportunity to explore and develop an idea.
