About Me 💫

Canadian 🇨🇦. Inspired by adventure 🤿 🏍 🎿 🌎. Fueled by passion to create (and kittens 🐈).
Design is all about creating value for people.

It’s a verb, not a noun.

An outlook, not an output.

It can improve lives, and make our world more enjoyable and accessible.

Transforming crazy ideas into reality fuels my passion for creating high-impact, high-value products and experiences.

Personal Values

What got you here won’t get you there

Theory is great for discovering new perspectives, but only through practice do we learn which ones fit us. Continued growth beyond the status quo means embracing new experiences, being comfortable with discomfort, and having a willingness to take calculated risks.

Genuine curiosity creates genuine empathy

Meaningful insight and innovation comes from understanding people — their needs and wants. Genuine curiosity, asking “why,” and digging to understand underlying motivation creates deep empathy for people, and unexpected solutions to the world’s problems.

1+1=3

A strong team is greater than the sum of its parts. I’m at my best working with diverse-but-complementary skillsets and personalities. A foundation of trust and understanding leads to productive relationships that transcend individual bias and capability.

Where I've Lived

My Favorite Things

Books, Music, Film, & Games

I'm inspired by all kinds of media, design, and other people's creativity.

MF DOOM - Mm..Food

Travel & Photography

I travel for exposure to new people, cultures, food, and activities. I prefer travel on two wheels — bikes, scooters, and motorcycles. I often enjoy the journey more than the destination. I use photography to document and remember.

Cats & Kitten Fostering

I love animals. I'm owned by two pet cats, and I work with my partner, Alice, to foster rescued kittens (prepare for gratuitous kitten photo dump 😍 🥹).
