DESIGN PROCESS VIDEO
NOTES
I have spent many years as a musician, over 20 in fact, and still practice my French Horn.
My process and work ethic as a designer has benefited greatly from my knowledge and understanding of music as a practice and a language.
I find that both good music and good design are universal languages.
Skills/Programs Used:
Script Writing, Story Boarding, Photography, Cinematography, Nikon D3300, Adobe Premiere Pro, Video and Audio Editing
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
INTERESTS
The importance of person-centered design and the user experience goes beyond the individual. Designing with the end-users in mind brings a renewed sense of empathy and focus upon how interior environments affect our health, both physical and mental, interpersonal relationships, and thus, our well-being. As an interior designer, I have made it my mission to see that we no longer exclude the populations that could benefit from design the most when programming for and designing our interior environments, because we are all in this together.
“… Empathy is a strange and powerful thing. There is no script. There is no right way or wrong way to do it. It’s simply listening, holding space, withholding judgment, emotionally connecting and communicating that incredibly healing message of ‘You’re not alone.’” Brené Brown, Daring Greatly

SOCIAL MEDIA
NOTES
For the most part, I choose not to engage in online social media.
I find that my quality of life is much greater when socializing in person or via video calling to build lasting relationships.
