Hey! My name is Max Shepard. I am currently studying Industrial Design at Purdue University. I have always been an avid gearhead, analyzing appearance, function, and durability to outfit myself with gear that fits all of my specific needs. This, combined with my lifelong need to have a creative outlet, has brought me where I am today: a designer passionate about creating functional and design-centered solutions for the outdoors. Being able to combine all of my passions into one discipline has been nothing short of amazing, and each new project ignites my love for design every time.
As an Eagle Scout, I spent most of my primary education surrounded by the outdoors. As a young adult, that passion has only grown and taken me to places I never could have imagined. I am always looking to push myself further and see more.
