I design user experiences that make you smarter & faster.

I want users of my design work to feel like a genius, lowering the cost of being the smartest person in the room. 

Hello! Here's a little about me...

I'm an accomplished UX Designer and Design Manager with a strong foundation in usability. 

I’m a self-starter with experience managing and art directing the work of interdisciplinary teams of UX designers, tasked with multiple projects simultaneously.

I'm also a proven innovator and strong individual contributor. 

I love data visualization.
Designing tools to understand massive (live) data sets is the challenge I embrace everyday. Primarily, I've been working in the field of Social Media Analytics and Social Ad Tech. I've designed social marketing tools for Fortune 100 companies and social analytics tools for the US Military, NAACP and law enforcement agencies.

Prior to data visualization, I was designing for mobile devices where my work was always rigorously tested for usability and appeal to a national (sometimes international) market. I helped launch Samsung's first US touchscreen smartphone, Google's first Android phone, relaunch of Sidekick on Android and designed a "most downloaded" mobile app in the Android Marketplace (which still ships on most T-Mobile devices today).

I love taking an idea from it's first spark and developing it into a "must-have" experience for the user. 

I'd love to hear about any interesting design challenges you need help with.
