Finding beauty in every space, every soul, and every second.
Member Since
September 2025
I’ve been working as a creative director and design director in a wide variety of fields over the past 20 years, including entertainment, architecture, and exhibitions. All of my creative work and experience has culminated in a passion to explore the power of composition–particularly in dimensional and interactive form–to move both individual souls as well as entire cultures towards a greater grace and beauty.
My super power is
Listening–not only to other people, but also to colors, forms, and even moments.
I'm looking for
Ways to work more directly in the development spatial experiences.
What I love about experience design
I love the “aha” moments in life–both to receive them AND to give them to others. These are the moments that often provide real and lasting change in us for the better.
Best piece of advice I've ever heard
Shut up and listen.
Where I find Inspiration
I find the greatest inspiration in water, sometimes while sailing and other times much more abstractly. It can be to us a womb, a tempest, and everything in between.
