About
I design cooler layouts for groups—zones for drinks, meals, and kids’ grabs—so lines move and food stays safe. I evaluate handles, hinges, latches, wheels, and spigots for real-world hands, not spec sheets. My guides make serving simple and cleanup fast.
Background
First big tailgate I ran, the cooler line stretched forever. I re-packed with zones: drinks on one side, lunch fixings staged up top, and a sacrificial cube bag just for hands. With shade and a pour-through spigot, we served cold and fast. Cleanup took ten minutes, not an hour.
Perspective
I overvalue ergonomics, access speed, and cleanup time versus sheer ice retention.
