Passions

Knitting

This piece won Most Outstanding Hand Knit in the Big E Fair. I'm currently working on releasing my first pattern. View more projects here.

Other Fiber Arts

I spin yarn on a classic spinning wheel, weave fabric on a 1940s 4 shaft loom, sew my own clothes, and Quilt.

Music

I love music and have played the violin (along with other string instruments) for 16 years. I've played in everything from bluegrass jams, pit orchestras to being first chair of a 200 people orchestras.

Product Designer with a Passion for People-First Design

Hi, I'm a product design engineer with a passion for using applied ethnography to create accessible, sustainable and simplistic designs. My design philosophy centers around the idea that users are the experts of their own experiences and as designers we should look to them to create products that best benefit them.
