About

In my UX design work, client installation projects, as well as my personal work in interactive installations, I aim to generate delight and surprise by building dynamic behaviors in unexpected places. With my unique mix of experiences in software+hardware UX, architecture, and interactive artwork, I'm able to create work across multiple mediums that can be functional, yet delightful; digital, yet physically engaging.
