THE WHOLE SHEBANG

people. place. ideas

I believe in the whole shebang. Design is integrated in all that we do, so why not be a part of it?

Design is a Noun: person, place or idea

person

[pur-suh n] A human being

My passion to grow as an individual is ignited by my desire to travel and experience cultures around the world in search of personal connections with one another. I live with eagerness to explore and passion to make a difference. I have great empathy that allows me to understand people and can help translate specific needs to design. People are the epicenter of all great design.

place

[pleys] a particular position or point in space

I am constantly observing the built and social environment to better understand the integral relationship of our physical surroundings and how it influences our behavioral tendencies. Spatial understanding is cruicial as we spend the majority of our time in man-made spaces. Place informs design, design informs place. 

ideas

[ahy-dee-uh] a thought or suggestion as to a possible course of action 

Design thinking is a tool that helps articulate the needs of our society. As a designer, I am passionate about new ideas and how these ideas translate into our environments in meaningful ways. Design thinking solves problems and leads to exciting discoveries.
