I am a multi-disciplinary designer currently residing in Central Oregon after 19 years in SF and LA. I have 19 years experience within consumer product companies as the core part of the in-house industrial design and product innovation.
I have experience working on all levels of the product design process from direction to execution, including: Product Road Maps, Strategy, Ideation, Concept Design, User Research, Form and UI Development, Surface and Solid Modeling, Ergonomics/User Testing, Product Rendering and Presentations. Within my experience I am able to merge company goals within the desired timeline from concept-to-production, utilizing our in-house team, consultants and various manufacturing partners.

Currently I am working as an independent contractor with various companies, notably with Fun Factory Germany on new product line innovations, building off my previous success with their best-seller Manta design. The main focus is on a new product line with a focus on new motor technologies and applications along with rapid molding and prototype testing, leading development between the US & German team.

In addition to Product Design & Development, I have considerable experience working on Packaging Design & Development, Retail Merchandising, Trade Show Displays and Pop-ups, Marketing Collateral, Product and Lifestyle Photography (concept, direction and production) and Product & Brand Video Direction.
