I n t r o duction When I think of my role as a designer, I am not sure exactly what that entails. However, what I do know about myself at this point is that I am very meticulous about every aspect of my life. I am constantly breaking down and reconstructing my surroundings to analyze how I can better them. Because being a designer requires a great deal of diligence, Industrial design gave me a perfect outlet to focus my energy because it incorporates an eclectic variety of design elements. Although the main goal is to create products, what interests me most is the journey, and as far as what I like to design, there are no boundaries.
