About
In my 18 years of design, I've spent time across agency, product, and innovation. I've always been drawn to interactive experiences and strong storytelling, and a desire to understand the 'why' behind decisions we make.
I've come to see my generalist background as a strength — I oscillate between high level strategy and detailed execution. I'm happiest and do my best work when I'm able to do all of that at once.
I live in Chicago, IL with my wife, two sons, and greyhound.

Colophon
I spent way too much time handcoding this website with Eleventy. It is generated and served via Netlify synced with GitHub. Fonts are Instrument Serif and Instrument Sans via Google Fonts. The illustration on the homepage was drawn by me using Photoshop, with brushes from Dylan Choonachat.
