Curriculum Vitae

After founding my own successful and nationally recognized interactive communications consultancy, providing interactive strategy creative direction to some of world's most well-known brands and introducing a new level of creative energy into the world of online advocacy and public policy, I'm looking for a new challenge. I'm a hands-on creative who is as comfortable in the boardroom as I am in the design studio – and I relish the opportunity to perform in both venues. Ultimately, my job isn’t simply to produce great user experiences but to apply user-centric design thinking to solve business problems – and to inspire others to do the same.
