ENTREPRENEUR – DESIGN SENSEI 

TODAY

Today I can be found in State College, ru. I have a great deal of freelance jobs that typically involve a branding design, sometimes a website or marketing materials. I'm also a consultant for various businesses that are pivoting, rebranding or ramping up their operations. But most recently, I've been interested in how I can help drive economic development in the Centre Region... by attracting and retaining talent, helping startups, and adapting the existing power structures to be more forward-thinking!


WHAT I LOVE

In 2009, I graduated college, worked construction for a year or so due to the bad economy, eventually, quit, and went on a journey to figure out what it is I wanted to do. So I moved to State College where I still reside and slept on sofas and on community member's sofas until I was able to launch several social ventures with close friends.

I learned I LOVE design and the creative process... and specifically, I love to place that energy into a business so that perhaps it can sustain. Creating worlds, programs and experiences for people that they can grow and experiment safely with like-minded people. That's where you'll find me! Sometimes it's real-estate related such as the founding of the co.space in 2012, or an innovation hub, such as New Leaf Initiative in 2010.

I love people. I love design. And I love the freedom and adventure that comes with being an entrepreneur
