About

Entrepreneurial in nature and exceedingly focused, I enjoy finding solutions to challenging problems. In information technology, my goal is to improve the human-machine interaction by taking a holistic approach to what has too often been a micro-managed (i.e. UI) problem. My approach is to instead examine and improve not simply the user interface but the experience in its entirety. As a result, the user comes away feeling positive, which in turn reflects well on both the product and the brand behind it.
