I am a thinker and a builder, a solver of complex creative problems. I work with technology to infuse human experience with meaning and emotion. I am a leader of design teams and a tireless advocate for strategic, thoughtful design solutions. I am the proverbial square peg, but with the novel addition of fully radiused corners (draw it out). I think in systems: Design Systems; Artistic Systems; Brand Systems; Software systems; Hardware systems; Human Systems. I am congenitally multidisciplinary by either intelligent design or statistical improbability -- take your pick. Professionally, I have worked across domains and disciplines: visual design, interaction design and UX, information architecture, product design and insight development, design strategy, brand strategy, advertising, naming and brand identity management. I can code, both software and hardware, and I enjoy working with engineers and developers because I secretly fantasize about being one. (shhh!) I am not an expert within all of these domains, but I am ideally situated to ideate and work with teams across them. As an artist, I have exhibited my large-scale mechatronic installations all over the world, from New York to London, from Shanghai to St. Petersburg. (Russia, not Florida) I have extensive experience with the logistics inherent in working with far-flung teams on large global creative projects. On occasion, I have been known to actually enjoy working too hard on no sleep to bring an improbable project to a successful conclusion. I can talk inspiration and systemization with your designers. I can talk technology with your engineers. I can talk strategy with your CEO. I can help lead rational conversations around optimizing design solutions and prioritizing creative choices. I have agency experience, startup experience and corporate experience. All of this lets me help teams and organizations not just produce, but to create and to innovate: thoughtfully, strategically, and joyfully.
