I've worked with agencies, startups, game studios, medical clinics, enterprise/industrial orgs, non-profits, and have learned to effectively communicate design solutions with each.I bring a wide variety of skills & experience to bear when researching & solving a problem; from hacking hardware to conducting user interviews, from CAD/CNC to UX prototyping, from mapping user journeys to managing hardware production.I'm intensely curious, with an innate drive to seek & deliver the truth in any situation regardless of outside pressures. I value my wide variety of experience especially in the way it helps me "know what I don't know" at the outset of every new project, and make sure I'm asking the right questions from the beginning.Recently Product Manager / Lead Developer at xCraft. It was very rewarding to be on the small, focused team developing autonomous drone solutions (and the software to drive them).At Kochava I wore many hats over the years, from Project Manager, Lead Creative, to Frontend development, API architect, and Senior UX designer. I worked creatively within technical limits to make mountains of customer data both accessible and beautiful, through customer research and iterative development. By proposing design systems, developing automated build scripts for UI assets, and relentlessly prototyping and asking the hard "annoying questions" during development, I did my best to enable our team to hit the target, even when that target wasn't initially clear.Worked at renowned game development studio Cyan Worlds, Inc; starting as a CS Technician on the "Myst Online" MMO title, and later as Senior Quality Assurance Lead to manage the testing of several next-gen console & PC titles. I also developed in-house web applications to optimize our internal QA tasks & processes.
