About
I am a designer and I am fascinated by culture and people. Those are becoming less and less distinct as globalization is driven by capitalism. I saw this most severely in Tibet when I went to visit.
I am interested in finding ways to help cultures maintain their identity while building a sustainable community that can survive in this global economy like Tibet and parts of Africa... I struggle to find resolution between the modernism that brought so many good things and the one that ruined natural beauty.
