About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Design cool industrial equipment, make lots of art and go on adventures with my wife.

ABOUT ME

Engineer by day, Artist by night (and sometimes during lunch). I love sitting in coffee shops and drawing. I like to cook gluten-free dairy-free food (and a few good vegan recipes too!). I enjoy running and yoga. I am married with no pets or kids.

PHILOSOPHY

When there is a moment of clarity, make some goals and figure out the steps to get there. When things are unclear, follow your steps.
