I spent 13+ years in education while building SUEDE1988 in parallel — and I've spent years riding and living inside the snowboard scene across both the US and Europe. That dual perspective shapes how I think about product, performance and authenticity: I understand what resonates with riders because I'm part of that community.
I'm motivated by product and storytelling — by how details, materials and construction choices elevate both performance and identity. I work well in teams, and I'm looking to bring that energy into an existing studio rather than building alone.

Five years of building SUEDE1988 taught me how to do everything — design, sourcing, manufacturing, marketing, retail — and made clear which parts I actually want to keep doing, with the right people around me.
