I am a designer who is fascinated by data and fluent in a variety of visualization techniques. I find some of my greatest joy in crystallizing complex ideas into clear visual manifestations.
A fundamental desire to learn has led me through several fields: medical illustration, media arts, dance choreography, music, audio engineering, and geology. Although these fields are quite different, my experience of them is united by the drive to deepen understanding.

Drawing : Remembering My Roots
I have drawn things by hand since I was a child, it's a fundamental part of how I think, like a second language. Even when I make digital artifacts, my practice of sketching and drawing on paper is always included.
Some of my favorite subjects are insects because of their extraordinary forms and materials. I also love to draw the human form because of how exacting one must be to convey the proportions and expressions.
I find hand sketches to be very useful at the beginning of the design process for building consensus. They convey the idea, without being tied to a specific form.
