I've always been a bag nerd, fascinated with materials, textiles, organization and functionality of soft-goods. I'm passionate about designing and creating quality items that merge form, function and long-lasting quality. Integrating soft-goods with the wide variety of components, that make up adventure vans, to form a seamless user experience is the goal.Outside of work, spontaneous road trips to new places or old favorites, with my golden retriever, Fiona, is what makes the world feel new and exciting. From my favorite Oregon Coast breakfast cafe to international destinations, I believe travel highlights the amazing diversity and beauty of our world.
