I believe innovation should begin with an open-minded approach. I never determine a solution without first understanding current product selections, and then identifying what instead should be offered to best fulfill people's unmet needs.
I am very passionate about collaborating with others, and I love that design can bring people together. I have organized meet-ups with locals, led programs at community centers, collaborated with experts, and been welcomed into people's homes. My strength is using industrial design hard skills to drive forward solutions that directly address the needs shared with me.
I have a master's degree in Industrial Design from the University of Notre Dame and a bachelor's degree in Industrial Design from Purdue University. I am currently working as an Industrial Designer at Eckert Product Development in Chicago.
