Art wasn't something I did growing up, it was how I made sense of the world. Sketching, painting, creating in whatever medium I could find. When it came time to choose a path, I found one where logic and creativity aren't opposites: Computer Science and Design.

I believe the best technology isn't just functional, it's considered. Crafted with the person on the other side of the screen in mind. That overlap between how something works and how it feels to use? That's where I live.
