I am a UI designer and Front End Developer from Chicago. I got my start building for the web in the late nineties at the age of 13 as a freelance designer for local businesses and agencies in Western Michigan.
After college, I worked in a variety of roles, from implementing web standards and developing re-usable templates for hundreds of radio station websites to building projects for some clients such as <namedrop>Ford Motor Company, The University of Miami, Rush University Medical Center, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, Hyatt and The Baltimore Museum of Art. </namedrop> Currently, I design and code some really cool products for Sprout Social, a really amazing company that builds some pretty nifty social media tools for business.
While in the web world I've worn many hats, my true passion is finding new ways to create innovative and intuitive web experiences balancing proven methods and bleeding edge technologies.
This incarnation of my website was originally built in late 2008 so please pardon the dust until I decide to redecorate. In the meantime, you can see some nice things people have said about my past work, catch up on some old articles & demos that I've written or follow me on twitter.
