Core

Core pieces of who I am that provide lots of meaning to my life and guide decisions I make everyday.

Ask More

I’m obsessed with asking questions and challenging things that look or feel set in stone. Systems and experiences need to be thoughtfully considered from many perspectives to make them stronger.

Minimalism

I’m always trying to simplify and craft systems that are focused and enjoyable. Minimal systems understand deeply what they need to thrive and don’t settle for anything less than the best combinations.

Movement

I really love it when life keeps moving, flowing, changing, and evolving! If too many things get stuck or stop moving completely, then I burn out and wear down much more quickly.

Craft

Experience Designer obsessed with understanding systems deeply so that I can know how and when to work in them or break them apart. Most interested in mobile computing (especially Android). I also design for responsive web and iOS and love figuring out how to support an experience across devices.

Stories Realm

Currently bothered by the state of film/video. Anyone up for making a federated video/film/streaming platform? Maybe like Funkwhale but video instead of audio?
