Hello Friend!
I am a designer, artist, snowboarder, and ukulele enthusiast, and a graduate of Rutgers, Mason Gross School of Arts, and Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences.
This year I’m currently developing the ‘Life in Color‘ app. A mood tracker that allows users to visualize their emotional journey and enhance one’s ability to self-reflect.
My philosophy on design is that it should have a foundation of research in which it’s built upon and aesthetic decisions are both symbolic and accessible. All the while keeping an open mind during the process of making to find the solution abet sometimes the unexpected one.
Feel free to reach out to me if you are interested in my services or would like to collaborate on an upcoming project.
You can find more of my photography here and illustrations here.
