The Maker
Engineer-adjacent. Perpetually curious. Usually in the garage.
It started with my dad's drill. I was a kid who needed to know how things worked — not just that they worked, but how. That curiosity never left.
Over the years it's taken me through engineering-adjacent work that lives somewhere between deeply technical and clean simple design — technical enough to understand how, creative enough to care about the why.
These days making things is how I fill the creative bucket, quiet the ADD, and prove to myself that I can still turn an idea into something real. I work mostly out of my garage — but don't be surprised if a project follows me to the kitchen table at midnight, or over to a local maker shop when the right tool calls for it.
Everything gets taken apart before it gets built. Understanding how something works is the first step to making it better — or making something new entirely.
Making things isn't just a hobby — it's a creative outlet, a focus tool, and a way to show up for the part of the brain that needs to be building something at all times.
No single workspace defines the work. The garage is home base, the kitchen table runs a close second, and the local maker shop fills the gaps. The project goes where it needs to go.
