My parents taught me to use empathy above all else. I love talking to people, and I love figuring out how to solve their problems -- big or small. True design, for me, is fitting the right design to solve the right need.

My life
My life
(Outside of work, that is)
I'm an LA native who's living and working in the beautiful steel city of Pittsburgh with my wife and puppy. I love cider donuts, Neapolitan-style pizza, and searching for the perfect bagel.
In my free time, I enjoy running, rooting for Arsenal + the Dodgers, and frequently losing at chess.
Let’s connect -- either over cyber-space or in person for a coffee!
I'd love to hear from you!
