Hi,

nice to meet you!

 

About me

I'm an apparel and hardgoods product designer and developer, I bringing a strong foundation in sales and customer service to clients to launch technical, globally distributed products. I search for the details that take a project to the next level and strive for the “..Oh! That’s really nice!” second look.

Outside of work I’m a prolific creator, usually hand sewing or researching my next project.

Thank you @c__l__o for having step by step tutorials.... I am learning slowly, but learning! Actual creating will come later.
Designed a "cycling jersey" in the loosest sense of the word for a metric century I really hope I still get to ride!
It's about the homemade heat! Go support @probablywhiskey 's kickstarter to fund their first album and light your mouth on fire with what @fix.it.phil swears up and down is "probably hot sauce"...
My coworker Phil keeps giving me homemade hot sauce (it's very good🔥🔥🔥) so I'm making him a label. "Something outdoors-y, like with rock climbing would be cool" so that's what I'm painting!
This is my ~untested ~ideal(?) longer gravel ride setup- room for an extra layer in the back and frame pack for snacks and goodies in the front, plus bottle. The 49cm frame makes frame packs a little hairy though.
This is the current setup for longer rides, with or without other people. The pro: tons of storage. The con: can't reach any of it on-bike. I think leaving panniers for commuting or true bikepacking is a better option.
So I've been riding my bike a lot. And *most* days, I don't have to carry much, so I don't think about the single saddle bag with a spare tube and CO2 and patches and levers in. But these are only the weekday workout rides....
Nice little afternoon cleaning the local boulders and wading around, unfortunately too wet to chalk up and send a few.
Finally finished this IKEApack 2.0 for a good friend! Loved getting to theme it with some fun and colorful accents! Everything I sew makes my sewing machine weep especially when I've got four layers and one of them is the slipperiest sheet of looses
#bye HUGE thank you to everyone who helped make capstone real and supported me getting it over the finish line! That's that on college, I guess. Feels wild

MANGO is live! See it on my website, on Behance with @ucid20 see it on Linkedin see it everywhere! Huge weight off my shoulders to be done with my capstone project, can't wait to present it! 🥭 🥭 🥭 #thesis #design #ultrarunning #hydration
