I am a designer living in Toronto, ON. I grew up in the Manitoba prairie and will always return to that place I feel most comfortable. I plan to continue to make a career that enables me to express my creativity. I believe in appreciating all the small things that make life beautiful.

"As a kid, you fantasize about all the adventures you're going to have. You imagine yourself exploring the world, and you wonder if you really can. Most people, after a while, sort of repress that desire and instead they just live inside a box and never attempt it. But I wanted adventure--and I know that life is short. So I tried to do a lot of things."
-Viggo Mortenson

Interests

I love to spend time with friends, canoe through Eastern Canadian lakes, hike, camp on the weekends, bike all year long, discover new music, participate in festivals, discover new ways to cook, take trips to the Rockies to snowboard throughout the winter months, sketch the places around me, practice yoga, boulder, read when there's some free time, and tinker on my drum set.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading everything related to architecture, philosophy, and fiction.
My favorite films are by Richard Linklater, Woody Allen, Michelangelo Antonioni, and Werner Herzog. I love listening to CBC radio and talking with friends to discover new musicians.
