My passion is bringing the future to fruition. I use novel technology to develop concepts and projects that are centered around propelling new ideas into the product market. My goal is to see a world that has been crafted with ease of use and humanity in mind. As the great Jedi Master Yoda once said "Impossible to see, the future is." Of course, Yoda wasn't a designer.
