For the past 20 years, I’ve journeyed through many corners of the design world—architecture, education, furniture, sales, branding, and most recently, digital product design. I’ve followed curiosity more than a map, and it’s led me to collect a diverse toolkit. These days, I see myself as a generalist—a builder of things that matter, driven by meaning and story.

Lately, I’ve fallen in love again—with storytelling. Not just the polished kind, but the kind that’s raw, grounded, and unfolding in real time. The kind that pulls from every skill I’ve honed, and demands I stay present, curious, and open. I want to master this form of expression—not to control it, but to live it.

That pursuit has brought me to a wild new chapter: I’ve relocated to a remote corner of the Andes mountains in southern Ecuador (solar panels + Starlink running 👍). It takes a two-hour hike to reach my home. Food arrives strapped to donkeys. Each day begins with mist, mountain light, and the sound of the waterfall steps away from the Casita. I’m working alongside local friends to craft a wellness brand rooted in the land—harvesting cacao, learning the rhythms of beekeeping, mixing body products, and capturing it all through design and story.

This is a return to something I’ve been missing. I grew up on a farm, barefoot and wild, and somewhere between deadlines and screens, I started craving the rain, the sun, and the feeling of mud between my toes. This new project is my attempt to find harmony again—a way to blend the soul of design with the soul of the earth.

Thanks for stopping by. If any of this sparks something in you, I’d love to have you along. Follow the journey through this blog, Instagram, YouTube, or GoFundMe—or all of them. Your support doesn’t just help me keep going—it reminds me why I started.
