Biography

I am a designer living in the outskirts of Indianapolis who specializes in creating usable and effective web and mobile interfaces. When I'm not working, I enjoy running, Marvel comics, and podcasts about movies. I'm lucky to have an amazing wife, Nicole, and two equally amazing rugrats, Van and Charlize.

I am currently the Lead User Experience Designer at Flixster.
