I’m an independent industrial designer based in Akron Ohio, with over two decades of experience designing award-winning products for the commercial architecture and building industry.

I have completed successful projects for some of the industry’s largest brands such as the CRH, Saint Gobain, Oldcastle, CertainTeed, and Whole Foods. I lead work for clients both large and small and have successfully produced millions in sales with new product launches.

I believe that design is the artistic application of logic and must be both rational and profitable to make sense. I thoroughly enjoy design and make those around me feel the same with the passion that I embody for the process - design is supposed to be fun!

If you're interested in chatting, have a question, or want to collaborate on a product, please feel free to get in touch with me.
