Skills
1. Spatial & Experiential Design
Designing environments that mediate the relationship between people and ecology. Grounded in landscape and environmental design, my work unites material, atmosphere, and movement to create living spatial systems.
2. Visual & Material Design
Exploring how composition, material, and identity translate across print and digital media. Each project refines concept into visual clarity, from brand systems and diagrams to cinematic frames and built details.
3. Conceptual & Narrative Design
Developing frameworks that transform abstract ideas into coherent stories. My work weaves concept, emotion, and structure to create narratives that shape meaning across space, image, and experience.
4. Fabrication & Process Design
Translating design intent into built reality through iterative and precise making. My approach integrates experimentation, coordination, and technical skill to ensure that every project is realized with craft, accuracy, and integrity.
5. Creative & Strategic Design
Leading multidisciplinary design processes that connect vision with realization. My approach integrates clarity, collaboration, and adaptability to align people, ideas, and resources toward cohesive creative outcomes.
