My user journey

I've done everything from waiting tables to project management. All of these experiences have helped guide me to my current career path and made me a better designer. I love this field, because it is the perfect fit for my interests (psychology, design), strengths (creative thinking, problem solving) and personality type (intuitive, collaborative, empathetic). 

Outside of work...  I occasionally freelance as a Professional DJ on the weekend. There's few better feelings in the world than using music to enhance the mood and experience for a room full of people. 

Other activities I enjoy include playing basketball, riding my bike, drinking coffee, watching movies and spending time with my dog Russell Trillson.
