About

I'm a product designer and founder with eight years of experience bringing hardware products from insight to market - across fermentation tools, music accessories, and advanced watchmaking.

Founding companies taught me to hold the whole product: user research, industrial design, materials engineering, manufacturing coordination, supply chain, brand, and go-to-market. Not as separate disciplines handed off between teams, but as a single connected process where every decision affects every other one. That holistic view is what I bring to every project.

I founded Blushworks (fermentation tools) and led product development at Noisy Clan (music accessories).

Now I'm looking to take that experience somewhere bigger - working with talented colleagues, serious resources, and problems that require the kind of cross-functional thinking I've been doing alone.

Check Out My Resume

  • User research, opportunity framing, concept generation, sketch-to-CAD iteration, competitive landscape analysis. Experienced moving from ambiguous problem spaces to defined product briefs across fermentation tools, watchmaking systems, and music accessories.

  • Materials selection (carbon fiber, glass-reinforced nylon, aluminum), DFM, injection molding, tolerance stack-up, jig and fixture design, prototype iteration. Fluent working directly with overseas manufacturing partners from tooling through first article inspection.

  • International vendor coordination, BOM management, lead time planning, quality control, packaging development. Built lean supply chains for sub-$100 consumer products with small MOQs and tight margin constraints.

  • Patent-pending magnetic tracking system (Compass). Red Dot Award winner. Experience navigating IP strategy as a solo founder — from prior art research through provisional filing.

  • Founded two consumer hardware companies — Blushworks (fermentation tools) and Studio Plural (watchmaking systems) — and served as first product hire at Noisy Clan. Built products end-to-end across concept, manufacturing, and commercial launch. Pursuing collaborative product leadership to work on larger, more complex problems with talented teams.

  • Kickstarter campaign strategy and execution (two funded campaigns), retail positioning, pricing, copywriting, product photography direction, launch sequencing. Comfortable owning the full GTM surface area.
