CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy Milan Design week, and bring you all back from New York Design week!

ABOUT ME

I am a designer and have my own small business doing webdesign. And also work days at a furniture design Consultancy in New York called Todd Bracher Studio. I have been raised a traveler, and love to explore, meet new people and be new places. I have friends and family scattered around the world who you will help me visit. I am respectful, gregarious and flexible. I prefer a bike over a car, and a walk over a subway. I prefer castelvetrano olives over mazanilla, and bucherondin over Philidelphia cream cheese. I play bike polo internationally.

PHILOSOPHY

It is better to bend in the wind like the blade of grass, than to break like the twigg. Also everything in moderation, and go big or go home.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have driven across the USA in a truck. I went to school in the building of the historic Bauhaus. I have climbed Mt. Washington in February. I have bought lobster while in a kayak from a floating lobster shack and cooked it on an island with no houses, or people. I have biked the hills around Lucca one of the most beautiful places in the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been a camp counselor, and a teachers assistant. I have also led rock climbing, hiking and mountain biking trips.
