Designing Through the Athlete’s Lens
Deep athletic experience informs my design intuition. As a competitive track & field sprinter, university football player (Cornerback), and active triathlete, I approach footwear through direct biomechanics stress, traction demands, and long-distance wear limits. Testing footwear under race conditions bridges technical specs with real physiological comfort.
