Who I Am

I am a product designer currently studying at ArtCenter College of Design, with a strong interest in designing tools and systems for demanding, real-world environments.

My work focuses on products that operate under pressure—where safety, reliability, and clarity of use are essential, not optional.

I approach design through structure, materials, and use scenarios rather than surface expression.

Many of my projects explore industrial, mobility, and high-risk contexts, rethinking how products should behave when failure is not an option.

I believe good design is not about adding features or aesthetics, but about making deliberate decisions—decisions that allow users to focus on what matters most in critical moments.

What I do

Design professional tools and equipment for demanding environments

Translate real-world constraints into clear, functional product forms

Develop concepts through research, sketching, and 3D modeling
