Hi and thank you so much for visiting the website known as MOSS.
I am grateful and flattered you are here. Prior to being the design Rock-Star that I strive to be, I have always loved design. My first client was a very high maintenance Barbie, who wanted a pink mansion in Malibu. So cliche. I talked her into a custom-designed 3-story 1974 metal bookshelf that accommodated her awesome collection of blow-up furniture. I should really try and find a photo of that. It was amazing!.
My first real job was in 1996 at GOOG – a Design-Build company in Colorado.
Pat Ryan and his band of merry welders were renowned for their design-on-the-fly practices and steel..lots of steel. The sink or swim work ethic taught me the art and value of custom fabrication (invaluable to me to this day). In 2001, Melissa Friday and I started XAN Creative in Denver, CO. Innovators and leading specialists in “Space Branding”, we aspired to take Denver by storm wearing pink hard hats and telling jokes that made even the plumbers blush.
In 2010 I moved to Seattle, Wa and created MOSS – a design company.
I see the design in everything – good and bad. And bad design, well, it just hurts my feelings on a personal level. I love what I do. And because I love what I do, I am good at what I do – just ask my Mom.
