Coffee & Cameras


︎ Type: Community
︎ Period: 2017
︎ Medium: Digital
︎ Status: Closed


Coffee & Cameras was born as a social solution to the photography community in Gainesville, FL. The idea was simple: get people to “attend meets and join our ever-growing community”.  

I didn’t manage to host many meets – seven to be exact. Granted, this wasn’t bad considering they only occurred once a month. Gathering people and keeping up attendance was a consistent challenge.

My decision to focus on my last semester at the University of Florida led to pause of the monthly meets. Sadly, I couldn’t find anyone to continue the effort and I decided to indefinitely put a pause on the community.  

Essentially, all I wanted to do was offer a social space for photographers, conessieurs and friends, to meet and socialize. Help teach others how to use cameras, utilize techniques, offer critiques, talk to photographers, etc.

Later plans were to start chapters in other cities and gather a following on social media channels to perhaps launch an official brand or organization.

Exoskeletal Support


︎ Type: Product
︎ Period: 2019
︎ Medium: Digital Presentation
︎ Status: “Completed”


I worked with Jackson Watkins to design an exoskeletal support brace for the silent generation. Our primary goal was to create a product that eliminates the issues associated with the usage of braces by this generation.

Good design fixes problems that additionally help all people. By focusing on those that need the most improvements (our silent generation), using a knee brace like this becomes very easy and more efficient. This can be thought to alleviate stress both physcially and mentally. Plus, they look pretty rad.
