I’m a designer from Chicago focused on making good things for good people.
By day, I help tell stories about good products, practicing my craft designing at 37signals. By night, I teach at The Chicago Portfolio School, organize CreativeMornings Chicago, and serve as a mentor with the AIGA.
Prior to 37signals, I spent three years as an interactive designer making awesome at Threadless. I've also done work for other really great clients including Google, Harley-Davidson, Rand McNally, Sears and SC Johnson.
I've had the honor of being recognized with AIGA, Coudal, HOW, Rockport, Print, UnderConsideration and other fancy design publications. You can often find me speaking about this stuff at places such as PSFK, The School of Visual Arts, and Zappos.
Other interests include, though not limited to: pizza, beer and shots of whiskey. I think I like you. We should be friends.
