About Me
I’m driven and inspired by two things: electronic music and modern architecture. I work to combine elements of both worlds into a line of urban bags for men and women that I refer to as “bags for the digital age”. I try to reflect the energy and sonic textures of the music I listen to into each of my designs. And I draw tremendous inspiration from modern architecture that is willing to breakaway from the traditional paradigms of space and structure.
