About

Design philosophy

I believe that the exponential growth of technology, combined with the slow growth toward the understanding of it amongst the general population, creates many imbalances, causing many consumers to overpay for or overvalue products and services that can be done cheaper, better, or more efficiently. Many of my projects aim to “level the playing field” by providing alternatives to the current solutions that hold a monopoly over the market.
