I’m a human-centered industrial designer with an interest in health, accessibility, inclusive design, and systems thinking. Growing up as a fish being scolded on my inability to climb trees, I know the importance of designing with and for the fliers, climbers and swimmers.
My approach to design is to use my ability to empathize with those who I am designing for and with. It is important to look at a problem from all angles. The world is full of thoughtless design that often leads to inaccessibility. With my work, I want to address these problems and make design more inclusive, enabling everyone to succeed.
I hold a Bachelors of Design (B.Des.) in Industrial Design from OCADU. Part of my education included a semester abroad studying Product Design at HiOA in Oslo, Norway.
I'm currently looking for full- or part-time work opportunities in the Toronto area, as well as meeting mentors or others interested in collaborating. Sound like you? Please head down to the contact box below.

I think my favourite design decision that I found in Norway was the choice to label the washrooms as Gender-neutral.

I first saw these washrooms at school HiOA (Oslo and Akershus University College of Applied Sciences) and kept seeing them around Norway. […]
I just got back to Canada from my 5-month exchange in Norway. I’m studying Industrial Design at OCAD U and went to Norway for Product Design at HiOA. While I was there I noticed countless differences that Canada and Norway treat design differently. I haven’t had much time outside of Canada so it’s hard for me to know […]
