Hey there!

I’m a maker and designer living and working in sunny Santa Barbara, California.  Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, I am full of hardworking grit and creative hustle.

During the day I’m a Senior Footwear Designer at Hoka One One.  I lead the aesthetic and performance direction for the Trail Running/Outdoor categories.   I have collaborated with brands like Snow Peak, Engineered Garments and Westerlind to create technical and style driven designs.

When I’m not focusing on the future of footwear, I design and hand build functionable goods, play hockey, or work on my 1983 Kawasaki motorcycle.

Cheers!
