About

After 20 years designing websites, apps, online marketing campaigns and other digital experiences, I’ve arrived at that happy place where I produce high-quality work quickly and thoroughly.  I’m equally comfortable running a project or contributing as a part of a larger team.  I know the right kinds of questions to ask, the most productive way to spend project hours and how to best interact with clients.  I have a high standard for project deliverables and always meet my deadlines.

During my career I’ve had the opportunity to work on a wide variety of project types and with a variety of organizations.  I’ve tackled large and small projects for almost every industry/market which allows me to bring considerable knowledge to the table from the get go.  From an organizational perspective, I’ve worked within the rigid structure of Fortune 50 corporations as well as the bootstrap flexibility of start-ups.  I’ve learned the best ways to succeed in these very different environments.

In addition to my current focus on UX/IA design work, I’ve played a variety of roles in projects in the past - visual designer, online marketing, “above the line” advertising, copywriting/naming and project management.  This experience allows me to contribute to projects outside of a defined role in UX/IA.

Finally, I’d like to think that I’m fun to work with!  I’ve learned along the way that producing great design doesn’t mean we must all seriously convene around the whiteboard and maintain painfully dry communications with clients.  I like to foster a light and engaged rapport with the people I work with.  After all, designing is fun!
