I find joy in connecting with consumers through a method-based design approach. For high school athletes, I engage directly at their schools, while for Olympians, I attend their track meets, training sessions and even attempt their workouts. This strategy ensures that my design work is precisely attuned to the consumer's unique experiences and needs.

I find inspiration by immersing myself in nature and exploring the world around me. This connection to the outdoors ignites my creativity. I also draw from the elegance of fashion and the innovation of architecture.

One of my best strengths is my seamless collaboration with teammates and cross-functional partners. I value the privilege of working with industry professionals and genuinely appreciate diverse perspectives.

As an inline designer, I am eager to embrace any opportunity for innovation and push the boundaries of my design skillset. Adopting the approach of seeking forgiveness rather than permission has enabled me to work on some COOL innovation projects.
