My design career has been a combination of product design and front-end development where I've often been a lone hat on an otherwise unified team: the lone designer on an engineering team or the lone developer embedded in a branding team. My curiosity has always been human-centered, metaphorical, and organizational. I'm interested in all aspects of graphic design, including system design, print design, and semiotics. I'm looking toward a broad understanding of design with the hope to use design as an avenue of reconciliation between people groups, within ideas, or as a way to shape understanding and direction. This has led me to pursue a Masters in Counseling Psychology, to understand the inner puzzle of humans (and myself, also a human).
