Intel
I started my career as an Industrial Designer at Intel Corporation after graduating. It was an amazing opportunity to work for a big company and learn about the business. My team worked on initiatives to design and prototype cool personal computers to accelerate OEM adoption of new technologies and products to the marketplace with Intel hardware.
I worked on Sony's first personal computer with Teiyu Goto from Sony. It was an opportunity to partner with the legendary Industrial Designer who designed the PlayStation. We helped Sony launch the VAIO desktop product
When our team was tasked with creating a really slim desktop PC that could turn heads and show off how slim we could make a PC, I looked to the retro futuristic designs of the past. This prototype was introduced at CES, and got people talking about what is possible for PC designs.
It was a really interesting time for the PC, when manufacturers were looking for new innovative form factors and products with more appeal to consumers that the classical beige boxes. The PC was evolving and designers were pushing the envelope.
