About

I am a software engineer and user interface designer. I have managed and directed small and medium sized teams. My passion is human behavior and specifically, how we interact with tools.

For the past 25+ years I have designed and engineered many software interfaces. My dual abilities of design and engineering allow me to quickly iterate on ideas with production code and not just in prototypical environments.

My approach to any project is to first understand the intended and actual users. By bringing the user into the design and development of a project and agreeing with team members upon the best use cases for those users there becomes a clear stakeholder for the project. We as a team, are then able to quickly identify, create, and test our solutions with our users.

Successful projects I have been involved with in the past have continuously verified with our users whether we are on the right path to enhancing their experience. Continual verification allowed our team to confirm that we were on the right path or whether we misunderstood our user and their use case. Identifying and communicating that misunderstanding afforded us the opportunity to hone in on our users needs and is often a great opportunity for innovation; becoming extremely valuable information for not only the team but often the entire business.
