Reviewed through NPP. I am not seeing how this biography of a product designer passes WP:NBIO or WP:NCREATIVE. The claim of notability is that he invented a tent design that got some "hey isn't that cool" lightweight news coverage and was nominated for (but did not win) a non-notable award. The sources are mainly about the tent, not about him; the only sources that discuss the subject in depth are his own website and his IMDB profile, which obviously do not contribute to notability.

- @ Spicy I suppose you are right, I thought his work in film might be of interest but perhaps I should revisit this page after something of note (if ever) comes through. Thanks, -- SALVAHOUSE ( talk) 22:12, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
