Developing products that are conscious of the user from ideation to production, revealing the energy that impacts our users.
I am originally from Long Island but my foundation and understanding of design is attributed to Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston where I received my undergraduate degree in industrial design. Currently located in Brooklyn, NY I design structural packaging for global beverage brands at PepsiCo on the Innovation team.
I am constantly energized by the collaborative process of the industry and I love finding ways to better people's lives through my design. With experience in corporate and consultant settings, I have a wide range of skills in creating 2D and 3D products that include: juvenile care and toys, kitchenware, medical care, electronic devices, enterprise utilities, and experimental products.
