Prior to working on interaction design for XR, I worked on web/mobile UI/UX for a variety of clients and as the principle designer for RatherBe.
I have been making art for over a decade as a means to explore my interests in computational geometry, geometric representation and culture. Selected works are shown here.
My background is in architecture. I have a M.Arch from UC Berkeley and have worked for a variety of interesting design practices that focused on using computational methods, 3D visualization, and sustainable technologies.
