I use open-minded curiosity to encourage clients’ through a process that enables us to clearly define goals and vision. Then I bring a rare mix of artistic creativity combined with an engineering mindset to produce beautiful and highly effective digital products.A foundational background in graphic design has instilled an appreciation of design systems and pattern-based thinking so critical to our multi-device, internet of things, brand-guided world (aka Swiss School meet Brad Frost’s Atomic Design).Through my former entrepreneurial ventures, I have developed a “quick-study” comprehension of the complexity of a wide variety of business needs. Both from the perspective of teasing out functional requirements for an application, and from the equally important standpoint of political diplomacy.Known as a synergistic collaborator with other designers, marketers, and engineers, I love working with other smarty-pants, no-drama folks that make my work better – the clever turn of a phrase, a brilliant data point revealed, can you try moving it up here? Whether leading a multidisciplinary team or working solo, iterating on work based on feedback or participating in improving the work of the team as a whole, I will sweat the details – your details. Competent from research through final production redlines, I enjoy the whole design process and it’s intersection with business and technology.Adaptable and flexible, I’m comfortable working with different types of organizations from consultancies and big Pharma to BioTech startups, to Federally-funded agencies. I have been fortunate doing what I love over the past 25 years: designing and building amazing stuff using appropriate technology that helps make life (easier, more fun, more efficient, mo’ bettah).Areas of Expertise• Information Architecture• UX/UI• Interaction Design• Wireframes / Task Flows / Storyboards• Visual Design & Data Visualization• Web / Responsive & Mobile Design
