As an industrial designer and nature enthusiast, I work to improve the sustainability of designed objects and our built environment. My fascination for “how the world works” has led me to explore a wide range of projects, always finding something new about the relationships between people, objects, nature, and infrastructure. Through my practice, I research consumer behavior and combine experimental biomaterials, digital prototyping techniques, and data visualizations to propose novel solutions to industrial challenges. I’m currently a faculty member at the University of Notre Dame.
