I like to make things. It's been part of my identity since I was a kid.

Whatever it is that I am working on is what I become obsessed with.

A lot of my work comes from my life experiences.

My childhood is a part of my story, and it's why I'm who I am today and why my career is what it is.

I've spent various periods of my career being thought of as various things, various degrees of substance and ideas.

I came from product design originally - I had been designing dolls for a toy company since I was 16 - so I'm used to working with plastic and different things. I had an innate interest in objects.

I think in my life I have so many things that changed so much with work and my career, and I don't really get to plan out a lot of my days. So when I have something that's familiar - just something that's there - I don't really like to switch it up.

Linking up the things you were with the things you become is what growing up is.

Some broad themes brought me where I am today. At a very young age, my hobby became thinking and finding connections.

I was always fascinated by graphic art and typography and architecture. And so I was constantly cutting things and making blocks and making buildings out of shoeboxes.
