With a decade of diverse experience spanning industrial design, product development, and graphic design, I specialize in bringing user-centric concepts from initial ideation to global production. For the past seven years, I have honed my expertise in San Diego, leading high-impact projects in the toy and sporting goods industries for brands like and Faux Bow and Tempercraft. My background is rooted in a detail-oriented approach that balances creative aesthetics with technical rigor, utilizing market research, 3D printing, DFM manufacturing prep, and colorway design to deliver high-performing products. Whether I’m designing specialized archery equipment or crafting cohesive branding for insulated drinkware, my goal is to create fulfilling, unique experiences that resonate deeply with the end user.

I move designs from intent through execution. That means developing the geometry, assemblies, drawings, details, specifications, tolerances, materials, processes, and configuration needed for a design to survive contact with fabrication, construction, inspection, purchasing, and production. My background spans California architecture and development, aerostructures, composites, mechanical design, and manufacturing. I work with DFM/DFA/DFx, GD&T, tolerance stacks, BOM and configuration structure, quality, supplier constraints, and standards-based documentation. I approach the work with the downstream consequences in mind: how something will be made, bought, assembled, inspected, changed, and represented in MRP/ERP systems. Where specialist engineering is required, I know what needs to be surfaced, how to define the problem, and when to bring in the responsible engineer. For architecture, I provide senior design and documentation support to architects and engineers on substantial residential projects, with project scale generally equivalent to $1M+ construction in higher-cost markets. My role is not simply to draw what is given to me, but to help carry the design through to a clear, coordinated, buildable set of documents.
