I’m from Houston, where growing up I performed as a professional magician, started and ran a mobile DJ business, raised money for a film production company at my high school, and became fluent in Spanish while studying in Ecuador.

At the University of Texas at Austin, I majored in Economics and Plan II Honors and minored in mathematics. While at UT, I co-founded and co-anchored the current affairs program on KVRX student radio.

Now I live and work in Los Angeles, a city that fascinates and engages me.

This website is a compendium of my thoughts, projects, interests, ideas, experiences, and passions.

My Work

Like design, science, and parenting, storytelling is a mode of thinking. Through my working life, I have combined my passion for storytelling with expertise in web technology, media production, organization, analysis, and teamwork to create interesting experiences in a variety of domains.

Passions & Projects

I love to engage both my left and right brain. I’m passionate about education, information design, technology, entertainment, and current events. I believe that through narrative we communicate ideas most effectively.

Personal

My personal interests include cycling, design, travel, cooking, reading, movies, and music (of just about every genre).
