Seeker of fine pretzels.
Over my career, I’ve had the fortunate opportunity to work with a variety of B2B and B2C companies large and small. Some of these companies are HALL Wines, Murray’s Cheese, Revolution Brewing, Munchkin, Saltworks, Breville CA, Allen Brothers, 3M, Iron Mountain, American Muscle (Turn5), The Sportsman Guide, Natchez Shooter Supplies, Lennox, Shure, Sprint, Vans, and Zynga.
Mentoring and watching designers grow brings me much joy. I also believe it is important to give back to the community having participated in SPARK (Middle school student mentorship), Habitat for Humanity (fundraising and builds), and Gigi’s Playhouse (volunteer photographer).
I have a deep passion for connecting people with food and culture. My hobbies include spending time with my wife and kids, picking fruit and vegetables out of my backyard, snowboarding, photography, visiting new lands, building stuff, studying meditation/personal development, tinkering in the kitchen, and fermentation projects.
