PHILOSOPHY
At my core, I believe that I can best be described as a designer that needs to understand. I have always had an insatiable desire to know everything from the most mundane subject matter to the most complicated process dynamics. This has proven to be a great gift that coupled with my innate skills as a designer have allowed me to have a unique and singular approach to web design. “Design is a plan for arranging elements in such a way as best to accomplish a particular purpose.” As stated by Charles Eames, I believe also that you need to clearly and fully understand that purpose before you can design. These elements have long been employed by 3D designers and manufactures. I believe they are just as important in 2D and web presentations and my goal is to continue to work and develop in these areas.
