About me
I knew I wanted to work in design at a young age, peering inside the windows of new model cars and critiquing them in my own way. As I grew I learned more about art and design, and after following my passion and working in the design industry for over 14 years I am currently working on the next generation of mobile computing. I can't imagine doing anything other than designing for a living.
I would consider myself a hybrid designer and leader, with a strong understanding of the emotional side of design through my fashion experience and seasonal storytelling, and a solid technical foundation gained in the consumer electronics world with user research, engineering and manufacturing constraints and digital interfaces.
I now live at the intersection of fashion and technology, creating useful products that look beautiful and are a delight to use. I aspire to keep learning, designing and leading teams to make a difference in users' lives.
Brands I've done work for:
North/Thalmic Labs - Misfit - Diesel - Karl Lagerfeld - Fossil - Sony Ericsson - Philips - Ryobi/Ridgid/Craftsman - 9 Suns Winery - Samsons Fitness - PatchPak, and many more...
Skills:
Vision and strategy, user research, ideation and concept development, prototyping, CMF, DFM, QC and manufacturing.
Software: Adobe Creative Suite, Solidworks, Keyshot, Sketchbook Pro, Microsoft Office, Google docs suite.
Languages:
Fluent in English and Spanish. I dabble in Italian and French.
Education:
B.Sc. Industrial Design, High Honors - Georgia Institute of Technology
