About
Great listener, below-average skateboarder. Forever practicing both.
I use design to improve products and experiences to soften the sharp edges of life. I spend my free time skateboarding, woodworking, and exploring the enchanted Pacific North West.
Background
Leb by a curiosity and love of learning, I've worked as a snow cone maker, barista, 3D printer, skate filmer, graphic designer, and creative director.
My current adventure is Practice Makes; a low-code web design agency shipping future-proof websites that clarify, connect, and convert.
I've maintained a freelance design practice for close to a decade, and I'm always looking for great people to work with and new challenges to learn from.
Approach
Though my process is ever-evolving, it’s consistently rooted in listening, learning, and play.
I believe design is “hope made visible.” More than something I create to be posted, shared, or sold, I see design as a toolkit for making focused steps toward a better world (and having a little fun along the way).
I enjoy collaborating with big thinkers who aren’t afraid to try something new. Sometimes that looks like user researcheb design, twork for a great band.
