About me

I’m a digital designer living and working remotely in San Marcos, Texas.

I’ve been in this field since 2009, focusing on cross-disciplinary design with a deep enthusiasm for design systems, open-source software, and well-organized high-fidelity prototypes.

Tools

• Design: Figma, Balsamiq, Miro
• Code: HTML, CSS, React, Git
• Research: UserTesting, Google Analytics, customer interviews
• Learning: NNG, Smashing Magazine, Frontend Focus

Interests

• Movies: Big fan of ’80s Hollywood, Christmas comedies, and over-the-top action flicks.
• TV: My favorite shows include Slings & Arrows, Community, and The IT Crowd.
• Books: I read the occasional fiction classic, but otherwise I’m into non-fiction, particularly on the subjects of space science and U.S. history.
• Music: I try to listen to new music every day. My stats are on Last.fm.
• Podcasts: I usually listen to a couple podcasts a day. Lately I’m enjoying Dad Saves America and The Winston Marshall Show.
• Real world: Bicycles, solo hiking, cooking, photography, minimalism, Texas barbecue, telescopes, National Parks, and road trips.
• Life goal: One day I hope to be recruited by an intergalactic team of fighter pilots like Alex Rogan in The Last Starfighter.
