Experience

I am currently a Senior Industrial Designer for Dell, specializing in Alienware and Dell Gaming products. I have worked at Dell for almost 20 years with experience on a wide range of products and design experience through all aspects of the product development process.

I have a diverse, hands-on background. I have worked as a sailboat designer, furniture designer, and (as a hobby) an amateur racecar driver and engineer. I have excellent fundamental skills in conceptual ideation, sketching, 3D CAD modeling, surface design and prototyping.

The common thread across all my work is a solid foundation of understanding the design process and knowing what it takes to work with a multifunctional team to launch products on schedule.
