User Experience Architecture & Design

Hello! I'm a Bay Area-based user experience strategy and design professional offering expertise in information architecture, interaction design, content strategy, technical communications, and project leadership.

I'm passionate about producing elegant, meaningful, and useful products and services, about sharing knowledge, and about adding to the critical understanding of our discipline.

I've had the pleasure of building relationships with clients in a broad range of markets, including retail, insurance, telecommunications, logistics, industrial wireless data transmission, and optical physics. I most recently worked with the good folks at Adaptive Path on a digital asset management (DAM) application for a large Bay Area marketing communications and design studio.

Capabilities
I apply deep understanding of user-centered practices and principles to all aspects of experience design for applications, the Web, and mobile devices––from early conceptualization through launch. Typical activities and deliverables include:

  • Business Requirements
  • Stakeholder Interviews
  • User Research and Analysis
  • Use Cases and Scenarios
  • Task Flows
  • Functional Specifications
  • Feature Prioritization
  • Design Concepts
  • Site / Application Maps
  • Wireframes

About the Work Samples
The select case studies and work samples shown here cover a broad range of user experience design and content strategy/development assignments.

For the moment, work samples highlight primarily independent work done between 1999 and 2005 and include projects completed while earning my Master of Science in Information Design & Technology at Georgia Tech. More recent samples are available via email and in hardcopy form.
