After growing up in architecturally forward-thinking Stuttgart, and studying in “poor but sexy” Berlin, I explored unique design approaches around the world. Learning from the diverse cultures and philosophies of Beijing, San Francisco, and now Los Angeles, I gained a wider perspective of what design can achieve.
