In the tactile process of creating, whether it’s shaping clay, working with glass, or making other materials, I see an intuitive path for developing knowledge. From an early age, I have been working with my hands to manipulate material to express my ideas. As a designer, I am drawn to discover traditional craftsmanship through a lens of modern design thinking. Each project is an opportunity to innovate and learn. Working at the intersection of various disciplines, art, design, craft and engineering, I am exposed to the unique strengths of each field. The synthesis of these areas not only broadens my understanding, it is the core of my approach to problem-solving and creative expression.
