00:00I've always been drawing since I was little and I was on a tour of Cleveland
00:08Institute of Art with my dad and I was trying to convince him that I want to go
00:11to art school. We stumbled onto the transportation design and I saw all the
00:15sketches and car models and I just thought they were so cool and from that
00:19point on I've done car design. Leading the Chrysler brand is absolutely humbling
00:24but also it's always been my favorite brand ever since designing Chrysler
00:27Pacifica. So it's just really exciting to set the future of this amazing brand.
00:31So when we set out to design a Chrysler house at Kassavka for Chrysler it's
00:36really meant to set the future for the brand and kind of really leap forward
00:39and figure out our design language or where we want to go with it and the menu
00:44proportions. I think the automotive design in general right now is on a cusp of a
00:48huge change due to all the different technologies so I feel like ever since
00:5360s we probably didn't have this type of a dream and optimistic perspective and I
00:57think that's where we are right now. My advice to all artists all high school
01:01students is always bring a sketchbook and always draw because it's only going to
01:05make you better.
