I am an industrial designer focused on furniture, lighting, and hardware: the spaces where physical form and human experience meet.

My work consistently centers on three questions: how does this get made, how does it endure, and how does it come apart when it is done? Design for Manufacturing (DFM), repairability, flat-packability, and CMF considerations are not constraints to me; they are what make a product stand apart.  

As a designer, I want to solve problems.

Usually found on my bicycle, in the sauna, or hosting dinner.


Exhibitor, 2026
 Currently, I am a Design Consultant at Roche Bobois, where I am working daily with high-end furniture collections, manage bespoke custom orders directly with European manufacturing partners, and create 3D spatial visualizations for residential interiors. Previously, I designed retail display systems at Shwood Eyewear, modeling in SolidWorks, re-engineering joinery, and prototyping hands-on in the shop. My background spans parametric 3D CAD, CNC programming, 3D printing, laser cutting, and woodshop fabrication, meaning I design with the shop floor, tooling, and assembly in mind from the first sketch.
