I love to cook (and feed people I care about), eat, snowboard, hike, see live music, and explore San Francisco and northern California.
I realized I was doing design work when I was conducting neuroscience experiments using MATLAB and electrode caps to record brain waves. At some point, it became clear the process of repeatedly building, testing, and improving these experiments was an iterative design process. I wanted to do more of this, and improve artificial systems based on how we understand human information processing.
I took a unique path to becoming a designer, and I think that's one of my strengths. Wherever I can, I like to leverage my cognitive science days to incorporate findings and insights into my design work.
