Hello! My name is Adam and I'm a designer and
storyteller
I did my university co-op study at a music co-operative called Studio 145 Co-operative (COOP145). When I began working there, it was as a grant writer. I learned so much from this position, and even wrote a grant proposal that allowed the coop to purchase the studio and equipment we were renting. While doing this, I was managing a service development team, as well as working with personal design clients through the coop, particularly Ocean and Moonlight.
The work with these clients eventually lead my to work at BioTech company Canurta where I served as a brand coordinator, creating blog posts, conducting competitor analysis, and writing the company’s white paper for their DeSci blockchain project The Healing Project.
I always knew I wanted to Create things. I love using photography, audio, design, and writing to tell stories.
When I began at the University of Waterloo, my focus was on creating audio-visual work. I grew up making music, and shooting photos and videos with my friends. For a while, it seemed like a transition to doing that sort of work professionally would be a perfect fit. What I didn’t realize at the time was that these weren’t the mediums for me to tell stories through professionally. As I studied UX design methodologies, branding, communications, and technical writing, my focus shifted into telling stories through those mediums as a career path.
