About Me
I’m an industrial designer from Salinas, California. Growing up in the heart of agriculture is where I first found my interest in design. My dad was a field worker, and he was the one who taught me how to fix things, but for a long time, I never knew I could actually design new things myself.
That changed when my dad showed me how to create and prototype. It’s where I started my methods: by working, experiencing, and finding a way to make a hard process easier. Because I’ve seen the worker's experience firsthand, I want them to find pride in their job. If I can design a tool for them that makes their work easier and their day happier, I will do everything I can to make that happen.
Through my design education, I’ve sharpened the foundation into a precise process. I now take my ideas from the fields and bring them to life through sketch ideation, CAD modeling, and many, many prototypes. I’ve learned that the best tools aren’t just dreamed up—they are built, tested, and refined until they’re right.
Outside world
I’m a maker at heart. When I’m not exploring the outdoors, I’m working with my hands—playing with clay, cardboard, and wire; making sculptures; or capturing landscapes through my camera lens.
"I’m currently seeking an internship where I can put my skills to work. I'm at my best in collaborative environments that encourage questions and hands-on learning. I’m ready to dive in, support a team, and build the next level of my career through meaningful contribution."
