Hello! I'm an artist and designer based in Northern California. I'm passionate about the ways technology can augment and supplement traditional artistic workflows in order to create novel human experiences. Design dictates lifestyle. As we move into unfamiliar territory with Artificial Intelligence, augmented reality and robotics, I want to shift the focus towards feeling grounded and present.
I studied film production at the University of Southern California. After that I worked in the AR/VR industry for four years, first as a visual marketer and then as a digital designer. Lately I've been focusing on 3D printing with clay as well as developing my ArchViz skills with Carona Renderer. My primary tools are Rhino 3D, Zbrush, Blender, and Adobe Suite. I also love photography and capture my own 360 HDRIs for digital lighting. Thank you for visiting my site!
