About Me

Throughout my life, I’ve been drawn to the power of storytelling. Whether through song, script, art, prose, or design, stories connect us in both physical and digital spaces.
I first noticed the significance of story in design while working on my cherished 1980 Toyota Celica ST with my dad, when I was 18. As we opened the hood, he pointed out a small arrow engraved by the manufacturer—a waymarker for anyone changing a spark plug: prop the hood here.
In my design journey, I focus on the details, celebrate the extraordinary, and maintain an open curiosity.
Feel free to reach out—I’d love to help you tell your story, chat about music, or share my thoughts on why the Mariners are headed to the World Series and why the Sonics should make a comeback.
Let’s explore together and uncover your own “hood moment” in design.
