Personally
I grew up about 45 mins outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with a very active, hilarious, and supportive family. I’m the youngest of 3, with two older sisters whom I admired growing up. We spent our summers together at our local swim club playing marco polo, and the school year learning music and theatrics in the marching band. (nerd alert!)
Today, I live with my wife Liz, (a UX researcher at Stripe) and our 3 daughters in Berwyn, PA. Our daughters are Margaret (almost 5yr) and our fraternal twins, Josephine and Susannah (almost 3yr) – yes, it’s a bit wild at home right now. It’s an amazing journey, and incredibly fulfilling watching them grow up (but not too fast!).
We’re so excited to spend the summer at the pool teaching them how to swim, and in our backyard shouting at the foxes, birds, rabbits, and deer eating our garden while playing “Monster tag”. Towards the end of the summer we’re taking a family trip to the Outer Banks. We can’t wait!
I’ve lived most of my life in or around Philadelphia, except for 5 wonderful years where my wife and I lived in beautiful Seattle. (Ballard) I miss the idyllic views, and the friends we made, but we moved back to the Philly area about 3 years ago during the plateau of the pandemic due to our …Surprise Twins™.
Professionally
I’ve been working in design for almost 20 years. (linkedIn) Early in my career I worked at branding and advertising agencies honing my visual craft and client service muscles. I built websites the wrong way, and then got super into web standards, CSS zen garden, before diving neck deep into front-end development and ultimately UX.
My career in product design spans both large companies and small startups, each requiring me to adapt my skillsets to drive positive outcomes. Here are some snapshots:
