I am a hands-on user experience expert practitioner with a strong background in software development and a passion for designing clean, effective and easy-to-use products.

My work includes a strong portfolio of world-class, innovative networked product experiences spanning the web, mobile and wireless. I have recently been cited as one of the top UI/UX designers in New England.

I have experience working collaboratively with product management, product design, and software engineering on agile development teams, in both startup and large company settings. I have also established and led UX design teams.

I'm an inventor or co-inventor on over a dozen software patents and patents pending.

In 2002, I authored the first business book linking online user experience to profitability, published by McGraw-Hill in New York.

My formal education includes an M.S. from the MIT Media Laboratory in Cambridge, MA where I focused on developing algorithms to enhance gestural UIs. I also earned a B.S. in Computer Science from Tufts University in Medford, MA.
