Introduction
I am a Google, Adobe, and W3C certified UX Designer. I have about a decade of experience doing User Experience, User Interface, and Interaction Design in software. My experience ranges from small agencies to .NET shops to enterprise-sized teams. My career objective is to be an Interactive Designer, creating awesome, accessible, user-centered experiences for apps and websites.
What I Do
I am a designer who can do some coding. My background and initial education is in graphic design, but I taught myself HTML and SCSS/CSS. This means I can have meaningful production discussions to bridge the gap with frontend developers while I focus on the users’ needs.
Accessibility is Important
It’s immoral to lock out users. It’s also bad business to deflate your potential customer base. My W3C-certified knowledge of semantic markup and accessibility empowers me to meaningfully contribute to team efforts. At any stage of planning and design, from research to information architecture to development, I can contribute to a meaningful experience.
Personal
In my free time, when I am not doing grad school work, I like to draw, read, and ride my bike with my wife, get coffee with friends, and enjoy warm weather.
