About

An ambitious soul, driven by a curiosity for what's next in the world of innovative design and engineering.

Coming from a city just outside Cincinnati, Ohio, Christian has always had a knack for understanding how products worked. Whether it was a website, an automobile, or a VCR (remember those?), he has always been intrigued by how something so complex could come together to create unimaginable experiences for people.

As a designer, Christian strives to make digital experiences that are visually enticing, user-focused, and accessible through his varied design skillset. He believes that when everyone can enjoy a product, that's when we can truly build community.

When I'm not designing, you'll find me reading, exploring coffee shops, or tinkering with side projects.
