I am a walking contradiction. I grew up on the West Coast with two East Coast parents, Italian, and Jewish. I was obsessed with skate culture but also fascinated by science, space-tech and sci-fi. I played video games all while learning how to make my own fishing lures. And, on any given day I might be listening to old-school rap, rock, country, or playing jazz and Frank Sinatra on the saxophone. Later I found that design allows me to use my diverse interests to extract the excitement and fun out of any concept or subject to visualize it in a new light.

My inability to silence my curiosity combined with my vast range of interests and experiences had one inevitable outcome; Design.
