The unknown excites me. New people, obscure places, and fresh ideas make my heart pump. I believe that as humans we have the opportunity to affect others for the better with each encounter, a chance to leave a trail of beauty wherever we go. My mentality as a designer is to leave the world more beautiful than the way I found it, by creating meaningful experiences and inspiring environments.
