Product Designer • Storyteller • Dad • Influencer
The best way to connect and message me on LinkedIn. I’m currently working at SAS and teaching design at UNC.
I offer Product Design Confidential Help, YouTube-Sponsored Collaborations, or One-on-One Training.
When I was in high school, my Trig teacher asked me what I wanted “to be”. I told her I want to be an engineer. She rolled the eyes, and told I would never be one, as she animately explained that her daughter was an Engineer and I didn’t have what it took because I was just an “average” or less student. What she didn’t know was that my home was distracting, not even coming close to providing the discipline, role model, or structure I later got as an adult. I pursued that dream with vengeance, became an Engineer, and later got a Master’s in Design. Today I’m a Dad and invent products that help others. I love being an inventor because it involves researching technology, brainstorming creative ideas, prototyping, and testing. So keep exploring your interests and never stop learning.
Years later, I had to make another life-changing decision with my 1st daughter, Sydney. I side-lined my career to be at home with my daughter. Being a stay-at-home parent was one of the best decisions Suzanne and I ever made. I used my evenings and went back to get my Design Master’s.
But I missed the people and the hustle, so I started working and filming again. But this time, I didn't want to be all things to everyone. So here I am, and I'm glad you found me. Now tell me your story. Feel free to contact me on LinkedIn if you want to collaborate or schedule some time with me to learn one-on-one online anywhere.
