A bit about me.

My twin passions have always been art and sport, thanks to the joy they brought me from childhood. I’ve never compromised on either of them, entering Cornell University’s Design and Environmental Analysis program as the only student-athlete. Growing into the designer I am today, my main goal has been transmitting joy to others through tangible products. The current design paradigm values functionality and aesthetics; I want my work to inspire fascination alongside these measures of success.

My experience as an athlete has been invaluable in shaping my work ethic, resilience, and drive as a designer.

As a user-centered designer, I take inspiration from our most human moments. For me, many of these come from the emotions experienced within sport.

Track & field puts a strong emphasis on precision within performance, which sharpens my attention to detail and functionality in design. I’m goal-oriented on and off the track, and used to an everyday pursuit of improvement that makes work feel like play.
