From the bustling tech scene of Silicon Valley in the 80s to the tranquil studios of North Carolina, my journey has been a tapestry of creativity and innovation. 

As a graphic artist, I honed my skills at San Jose State University. Then after a transformative stint during the formative years in Silicon Valley, I served in the Air Force, a period that shaped much of my disciplined approach to design.

Leaving the service, I pursued Architecture at the University of Arizona, graduating in 1991. My career as an architect, based in Southern California, spanned over two decades. I specialized in designing custom homes and commercial buildings, a profession I recently bid farewell to by retiring my Architectural License in 2023.

Today, my focus, alongside my wonderful wife Lisa, is in designing and manufacturing an educational toy called Qubits® Building Sets. Our company, QubitsToy.com , based in North Carolina, is a culmination of our shared passion for education and design.

Recently, my personal escapade into the realm of AI art has led to an exciting project: creating a GPT that efficiently generates toy packaging mock-ups. It's a delightful blend of my graphic design background and AI technology.

Enjoy the playful toy and keep building!
