Product Designer

My roots are based in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah, which offer remarkably diverse environments for outdoor recreation. The most influential experiences in my life have come from spending time in nature and exploring the world in hiking boots. I believe that outdoor adventure is tied to imagination and ingenuity. This can also be said for our outdoor products. As an Outdoor Product Design and Development major, I hope to develop products that enhance the user's experience as they forge their own relationship with the outdoors.
I strive to design products that inspire action. My creative process flows through ideation sketches, digital renderings, and physical prototypes. I approach each design with an optimistic, solution-based mindset. This attitude helps me consider a wide range of options within the development of my projects. My goal is to produce the best possible experience for the user of any product that I create.
I am a mountain climber, a trail explorer, and a powder shredder, and I love creative design.
