I am a multi-disciplinary designer and graduate of Emily Carr University of Art & Design with a Bachelor degree in Industrial Design. I have a prior background in Fine Arts and the Humanities, which informs my perspectives of design thinking.

My work is inspired by the uncanny and the obvious, investigating the way we live and how we form meaning around objects. Using observation and experimentation to further define our lived experiences.

I currently live in Seattle, Washington where I am pursuing a career in Industrial Design and other creative ventures.

At Iacoli & McAllister I gained experience in high-end furniture and lighting design by creating fabrication drawings for production, rapid prototyping using 3D-modeling software, managing product libraries, creating line sheets, hand-sketching product concepts, and assisting in product photoshoots in preparation for tradeshows such as the AD Design Home Show and the Sight Unseen Offsite. I assisted in marketing in a variety of ways and stuck to their graphic standards producing content for print and the web.
