What I'm Building
Adjustable support, not another pillow.
Everything I work on comes out of the same suspicion: the variable people keep changing — the pillow — may not be the variable that matters most.
Product
Crown Lift®
Crown Lift® came out of my own trial and error. After months of stacking and folding things under my head, I became convinced the missing variable might be the support underneath — not the pillow on top.
So instead of designing another pillow, I designed a way to change the lift of the pillow someone already owns and likes. Crown Lift® uses interchangeable support inserts to modify how high and how firmly the head is held, so support can be tuned to a person rather than chosen from a category.
It's a product, not a treatment. It's designed around comfort and positioning, and I make no medical claims for it.

Project
The Pillow Lab
The Pillow Lab is the research-minded half of my work: an evolving observational project measuring how heads and necks actually meet pillows, and looking for patterns across very different bodies.
It exists because building the product raised questions the product couldn't answer.
