About
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.
