Ever since I was a kid, I was fascinated with the idea of building things from scratch. Later in life that fascination evolved into a deep desire to create and nurture great experiences in all aspects of life. Today, that is the main force driving my decisions. I want customers to have the best products. I want businesses to thrive. I want users to be delighted. Design to me is the medium in which I ensure those goals are met. My interdisciplinary approach to design fueled by my passion for creating elegant experiences has allowed me to solve big problems for companies of all sizes and backgrounds.

You discover what's possible when you try what you can't

At the core, I believe that successful companies have a great understanding of why they exist, a deep knowledge of their users, and an insatiable desire to innovate. Willingness to take risks and learn from each step can be a scary yet highly rewarding road to travel. Somewhere along the way I fell in love with this process even more than the destination itself.

Today I have over a decade of experience helping companies with their journeys through the unknown. I've had the privilege of working with some of the most innovative companies in the planet including Adobe, Rover, Live Planet, and many others.

Meet the SILVA CREW

Life is not all about what you do, but who you do it with.

My family is my biggest support system. I have a beautiful wife (Abbie), a 5 year-old boy (Shai), a 4 year-old girl (Liat), and a 1 yo girl (Ayla) and we live in Portland, OR.

We love the outdoors so when we're not all packed in our car headed to the mountains you'll find us at our local park taking a stroll.
