My Ambitions
I graduated from North Carolina State University in December 2009, with a bachelor of Industrial Design. My passion is to pursue a career in product design, though I am interested in any creative opportunities. I have a background in Graphic Design and Fine Arts before transferring to NCSU.
Design
I found design intriguing while helping my dad part out and restore Post-War Studebakers as a kid. The works of Bob Bourke, Brooks Stevens, and Raymond Loewy were early childhood inspirations and motivation to pursue a creative career.
My Perspective
“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep,” from the words of Scott Adams. I think mistakes can unlock new ideas, which have the potential to help people and the world.
