BIO

I have designed for brands large (New Balance/Dunham), medium (Keen), small (Samuel Hubbard Shoes), and growing (Bogs Footwear).
I love to travel widely, prototype wildly, sketch thoughtfully, test quickly, and develop collaboratively.
For every brand, I try to amplify their style, but bring my expertise in comfort, innovation, and quality.
I have deep experience in the footwear design and development process: sourcing & development, inspiration & benchmarking, innovation & ideation, strategy & branding, prototyping & testing.
BRANDS     Keen, Danner, Swiss Gear, Superfeet, Samuel Hubbard Shoes, Bogs Footwear, Dunham (at New Balance), Chrome Industries, Wenger, ShedRain, and Celsius Snow, to name a few.
AWARDS     In collaboration with friends, designers, engineers, and clients I have won awards from Red Dot, the Industrial Design Society of America, Price Pfister, and the Oregon Manifest.
MEDIA     My creative and innovative designs have been featured on CNN nationwide and local Fox News, published in The Wall Street Journal, Fast Co., ID Magazine, the LA Times, and The Portland Tribune.
