SUMMARY

As an innovation-focuseddesigner, I want to make things that change the way people look at common objects. I am highly skilled with research, as I believe it’s important to know and fully understand an area before you create a new product for it. I desire to be surrounded with other creatives who want to change the outdoor industry, as we know it.
