A native of Beaverton, Oregon, I’ve been captivated by the world of sports products from an early age. Growing up near a hub of design innovation, my curiosity for performance and craftsmanship was ignited. This passion ultimately led me to explore the intersection of creativity and functionality in product design.

A diverse early career introduced me to the product function, where I closely supported a small design & development team. This experience reignited my passion for creating purposeful products, motivating me to complete the University of Oregon's Sports Product Management Program. This program deepened my understanding of the product lifecycle and sharpened my skills in bridging consumer needs with technical solutions.

Building global relationships has been one of the most meaningful aspects of my professional journey. Collaborating with international partners to align on quality and innovation has deepened my appreciation for the interconnectedness of the global development process. These experiences reinforce my belief in the power of thoughtful collaboration to create meaningful product solutions.
