About Me
Born and raised in the Seattle area, I'm currently pursuing my passion for industrial design as a pre-major at Western Washington University. Growing up on Capitol Hill, I fell in love with Seattle's vibrant culture, diversity, and the vast array of ideas, styles, and artistic expressions that come with it. My father, one of my earliest influences, introduced me to the world of art at a young age. When college became a possibility in high school, I merged my two passions - creative problem-solving and art - and discovered my calling: industrial design.
