What is good design?
In 2023 I joined Outer Labs as a Product Strategist helping identify and validate new business opportunities for the AEC tech start-up.
I also started Waterworks Games and published Alpenglow, a ski resort board game that raised over $100k in crowdfunding, with 3 new titles coming in 2025.
