I am a digital product design leader. My background includes creative management, design research, business strategy, visual design, branding, advertising, marketing, and technology. I lead creative teams to make next-generation products & services with a refreshing blend of innovative management, business intelligence, visual design, branding, advertising, marketing, technology & a deep understanding of how design can influence human behavior.

I consult on strategic design projects. I co-authored Designing Interfaces 3, published by O’Reilly, and I am working on my second book.

I am on the Interaction Design Program faculty at California College of the Arts, where I am an Associate Professor and led the program as chair for five years. I also teach visual design and theory at San Francisco State University.

Note: An occupational hazard of specializing in strategic design and future concept design means most of my work is under strict nondisclosure as the products are either still in development or involve patented technology that I cannot discuss or show. The work shown is either my project work, no longer in effect, no longer subject to non-disclosure, expressly permitted to disclose, and/or is publicly available.
