Who is this guy?

I'm a human-centered product designer with over ten years experience in a variety of roles in UI, UX, print, web, branding, and marketing. I’m currently in Seattle, Washington doing product design at WONGDOODY. I've lent my skills to names such as T-Mobile, Starbucks, Toyota, Burger King, Sling TV, Bose, and more. I have a BFA in Visual Communication Design from the Hartford Art School. Let's be friends.

How do I do it?

I'm adept at owning the "full runway" of designing a digital experience. My years of experience on many different teams & industries have given me a wide range of skills, and a chance to work among many different processes, always walking the line between beautiful form and necessary function. Take an in-depth look at how I work.

Education

2008 – 2012

The "F" in BFA counts for something. This was a digital design program rooted in a firm fine arts foundation. Learn the principles, and you can design anything.
Notables: artistic merit scholarship / smarty-pants GPA / Sigma Alpha Pi honor society / AIGA CT Chapter / CT Art Directors Club Silver Award, 2011

2006 – 2008

Seacoast School of Technology

Digital Communications

They let us ditch "real" school every afternoon and go to a local vocational school instead. "You realize we'd be in gym class right now if we played by the rules?" This gave me the preliminary interest & expertise in vector design, animation, video production, and web design.
