Designing for people, from the factory floor to the hands that hold it.
Everything I make starts with a pain point and ends with someone feeling a little more connected, inspired, or cared for. The user experience stays at the center of my process, even when it moves fast, and I carry it all the way through the interactions, the CAD, and the manufacturing details. Currently, I'm an industrial designer at Unbox Product Design, a small, award-winning San Francisco studio taking client passion projects from first sketch to production. There I lead parts of client projects, from early research and ideation sketching to building working prototypes (both physical and digital), analyzing how they perform, and carrying the design through visualization and factory communication.
Before form or features, I decide how a product should leave someone feeling. The OXO cane started with how it feels to be seen using one, and set out to make people feel cared for instead of singled out.
See OXO →People first means the people who assemble a product as much as the people who use it. At Rendyr, designing the build around the assembly team took it from 30+ hours to under 15.
See Rendyr →I don't draw a hard line between physical, digital, and UX. Amity's pieces, screens, and packaging were designed together, because to the people playing, they're one experience.
