A little About me
From Lego’s to 3D printing, I have been in love with design since my early childhood. Often I would (and still do) take products apart to observe how they were built and gain inspiration on how other products could be better designed. This passion for design and creating products eventually led me to gain a bachelor’s degree in Manufacturing Engineering Technology from Brigham Young University and a master’s degree in Industrial Design from Arizona State University. In my professional career, I have been privileged to work with some notable clients, including Apple, Dell, and Hasbro. I am a Certified Solidworks Professional and am skilled in CAD, 3D rendering, sketching, rapid prototyping, ergonomics, and packaging design. In addition to seeing product I’ve worked on out in the wild, I love a good book, board games and downhill mountain biking.
