Creative Director, Experience Design @ R/GA
Wandering. And wondering. With purpose.
“I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.” A designer who can dream, under a deadline; blending learnings across multiple disciplines into cohesive ideas executed digitally. Often described as relentlessly resourceful and optimistic, collaboration comes naturally even as I lead. I still wonder, every day. Hunting and gathering inspiration. Hoping to always create experiences that affect people meaningfully.
It's all been a great bit of fun. Leveling-up and collecting skills along the way. Connecting dots. Searching and sifting for patterns. Recombining ideas from many disciplines: Experience Design (UX+Strategy) for global, digital agencies (CP+B, R/GA). Re-imagining the future of gaming on mobile, social and PC platforms (Electronic Arts). Virtual worlds (Second Life). Mobile phones for kids (Kajeet). Client software and digital products for very large online services (America Online, 96-01). Sound design. Music production. Magazine design. Graphic design.
