I'm Ellen, a designer obsessed with solving problems and finding unconventional solutions. I take delight in the unexpected. My design approach comes from an intuitive empathy and an insatiable curiosity for the world around me.
In my work, I focus on how material, color, and proportion combine to tell a story that invites the user to participate. I love exploring creative use of materials and unusual conceptual combinations. In my free time, I've been bouldering, learning Mandarin, and studying paleontology.
