Mr. Gross has had the unique privilege, advantage and experience of two professional careers. One in the Performing Arts and the other in the Visual Arts, Sciences, and Technology. Following a highly competitive audition process Mr. Gross was accepted into and attended the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. He later continued his studies in the United States, Europe and the Middle East eventually returning home to a new creative career as a
Georgia Institute of Technology educated Industrial Designer.
Mr. Gross has been awarded many utility and design patents that were funded and successfully commercialized. His work has been featured in both national and international publications and the Robb Report recently called his seating
"the best in class". He began his multidisciplinary design career as a team member in creative leadership positions with nationally recognized firms and has been an independent ID consultant for over the past two decades.
