J. Hogue Email & Phone Number

I have over 20 years of experience in design and user experience and am currently the Director of Design & UX at Oomph, leading a team of digital platform experts with strategic thinking, cutting-edge UX practices, and visual design. I have worked with all sizes of business, from national brands to local non-profits, in the health, higher education, cultural institution, and new technology sectors. I am passionate about solving complex business problems by asking smart questions, probing assumptions, and envisioning an entire ecosystem to map ideal future states and the next steps to get there. I love to use psychology, authentic content, and unique visuals to deliver impact, authority, and trust. I write about emerging technology and creative practices, as well as methods to attain high accessibility and inclusion. I have been a business owner and real-estate developer, so I know what is like to run a business and communicate a value proposition to customers. I find that honest and open communication, a willingness to question everything, and an empathy towards individual points of view are the keys to successful creative solutions.I live and work in Providence, RI, and love this post-industrial city so much that I maintain ArtInRuins.com, a documentation project about the history and evolution of the local built environment. I help to raise two amazing girls alongside my equally strong and creative wife and partner.
