Design is instilled in every aspect of life. Natural and manmade creation[s] individually and melded together form our [built] environment. At a young age it was apparent I paid attention to small detail[s] and loved fine craft and components. Designing is second nature to me, I think about it all the time. Design is problem solving with an artistic expression. As a social being I love chatting with others about design, whether they have a passion for it or not. It intrigues me to hear others opinions, ideas, and thoughts about design. This helps me understand how others see the world. I enjoy the challenge of helping those outside of the design field understand and see the effects design has on everyday life and how my design can influence the world.
