As a kid, I loved puzzles.

My mom would find them at rummage sales. I would stay up for hours putting a 1,000 piece puzzle together to find out it was actually a 999 piece puzzle.

A problem.

I cut a piece of the puzzle box to the shape of that missing piece, painted it, and proudly filled the missing gap.

A solution.

Here we are - decades later and I truly believe I lead a life by design. From organizing my kid’s dresser drawers to rebranding a whole suite of logos, I believe great design doesn’t just look good; it solves problems and connects with people.
