Human Interface Designer Apple, Cupertino
A hand-stitched bag feels different.
Because it's made with care, shaped by experience, built to fit.
You can feel the difference.
That's how I design — hand-crafted, shaped by many perspectives, refined through persistent iteration to meet the highest standards.

SPECIALTY
Interaction design is what I do best. The micro-moments, the transitions, the details. Behind every one, 1,000 failed ideas. Here's a library of the good, the bad, and the crazy.

TESTIMONIALS
AFTER HOURS
I love traveling and capturing new places on camera. I play a lot of beach and grass volleyball, and lately I've been getting into Korean, Chinese and Italian cooking. When I'm not doing any of that, I'm probably in the garden or woodworking in the workshop.
