I was born in 1986. I got a BA in Accounting from Rutgers University, and a MS in Industrial and Systems Engineering from the University at Buffalo.

 

Brief Timeline of My Origami

 

I have been folding since I was 5. I got particularly interested in modulars when I got the book Unit Origami by Tomoko Fuse. I've been a part of OUSA and the NYC conventions since I was 10, and from there my appetite for new origami models exploded.

 

Starting around 2002, I started designing my own modulars, most of them based on edge-unit polyhedra, and I have been developing my own niche of the modular world ever since.
