Tumbleweed robot

I am an Israeli designer with six years of experience in developing interactive products. My specialty is combining the physical and the virtual.

I’m currently completing my studies in Industrial Design at Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem, while working as a designer for DESURBS (an EU’s FP7 Research Program ) and making music when I can.

I grew up in California, Switzerland, Israel, Montreal, and Chicago – living in Israel since 2005. I got hooked on design building guitars and websites, spent my army service developing E.O.D. robots, and over the past few years have been developing interactive exhibits for Madatech Israel National Museum of Science, Technology & Space.

For me, design is a bridge between different fields and disciplines, details and context, theory and practice – connecting problems to solutions. And I love things that have a satisfying click.
