I am a designer drawn to architecture​,​ materials​,​ and the quiet intelligence of craftsmanship across different cultures and continents. I am deeply interested in anthropology and in understanding people​,​ cultures​,​ and how things are created and come to be—both in nature and in human-made systems. I take inspiration from what already exists​,​ especially in nature​,​ believing that everything is already there​,​ waiting to be discovered and reinterpreted.
