I find it pretty weird to write about myself in the 3rd person, so I’m gonna change it up a bit and give you the facts about myself straight up.

Growing up I was interested in always fixing things, especially setting all the blinking LED clocks on VHS players for my family and our friends. Without fail, I’d be flabbergasted by how difficult and convoluted that process usually ended up being.

Fast forward a few years, through the rise of personal computers, cd-roms, modems, and the Internet and I found myself at Tufts University, trying to decide what to study. There was a multi-disciplinary program that tried to understand the psychology of engineering and design (Human Factors) and it intrigued me so much I decided I wanted to do it (but I still got my useless liberal arts major in there too, don’t worry).

I studied HF & English at Tufts, focused on Interaction and UI Design, got a job at Razorfish, got laid off with everyone else in the US (and the world?), “freelanced” for a bit, worked at NPR in Boston, worked at Tank Design, worked at RDVO as an Interaction Designer, and found my way here to TBG.

Now, I’m helping bring UX to the hordes.
