Drift is an alternative navigation app that provides an entirely new and very cool way to experience cities.
What makes Drift special? Serendipity. Following simple cues, Drift leads you to places you might not normally go, asks you to do things you might not have thought of doing, and exposes you to new experiences that then become a portal to see other people's similar experiences. The experience is both participatory and active while relying on all the senses to explore the streets around you.


Third Thursday is a monthly speaker series that I started after joining frog design. As a person who believes strongly in the importance of studio culture and is constantly looking outwards for new ideas and thinking,
Third Thursday became a means to bring new, challenging, exciting and engaging discussions to the frog studio every month. On occasion we were able to extend an invitation to the local design community to attend and participate, including IxDA and AIGA, as well as design studios in the Seattle area.

The speakers featured in the series brought with them a range of diverse topics to share and discuss. For example: the role of design artifacts in science fiction, the art of telling stories and giving presentations, social psychology and its impact on our digital lives, and approaches to designing for millions of users.



LACAUSA combines fashion and consciousness. Its mission is to offer an entirely sustainable line of clothing uncompromising in its design—while bringing awareness through fashion to issues of environmental, social, economic and political realities. The inspiration for the first season is "Ride a Bike!"

A play on words, the brand name is a combination of its location and intention.
LA, CA, USA + La Causa (the cause) = LACAUSA



Luis Barragán was a highly regarded, modernist architect and landscape designer. Rather than focusing
on his life’s work, this book places emphasis on Barragáns personal interests, friendships and philosophies
that informed his process and provided inspiration for his renowned oeuvre.

The layout and typographic design of the book take inspiration from Barragáns own design principles—
bold use of color, shifts of scale to denote passages or themes, and the incorporation of vast, open space
to accent the details.


Re:birth was a collaboration between two non-profit youth programs—re:active and Street Poets—that use education and the creative process to inspire and support youth voices.

Leading art workshops in residence at La Vida North High School—a continuation school for pregnant teens in South Central Los Angeles—we used the production of a theme-based magazine, titled "re:birth," as a way to introduce students to design thinking and creative careers.

All the artwork and writing for the magazine was made entirely by pregnant teen girls and teen mothers and
one father to be. The magazine of student work was funded by a grant from the City of Los Angeles Cultural Affairs Department.


All logotypes were created through a process of pencil sketching and refinement to achieve the correct forms, then scanned and brought into the computer for digitization and final refinements.
