AI Design Studio began the moment I could hold a crayon in my hand and learned that by moving it around on just about any surface I could create an idea. The idea for a Design Studio began while studying Commercial Art and Advertising Design in high school. After traveling the world I studied Technical Illustration, and pursued a career producing technical publications for some of the biggest office furniture manufacturers. Eventually my travels brought me to Hawaii where AI Design Studio continues today as one of Honolulu's premier Web Design Studios.
