About

Born in Seattle, and raised all over the world. I've experienced a myriad of cultures and people, each with their own ways and ideas. These experiences have shaped and molded me into the person I am today, and these qualities show in my work.

I built my first computer in elementary school, my first robot in high school, designed webpages for my classmates and friends all through secondary school, and took over teaching a college Photoshop class when I was 17.

Whether digital media, or industrial design, I always love realizing new concepts, and thinking of new, creative and inventive ways to tackle old problems.
