OVERVIEW

Form Follows Function (and Context!)
I am an interaction designer adept at visual communication, eLearning, and usability. I have over 18 years of experience creating successful customer-facing and internally-directed solutions in web use strategies, branding, visual design, and instructional design. In short, I use functional creativity to address business goals. I am at home on a design team, using PM structure for both understanding the larger initiative as well as defining tactical requirements. Clients have ranged from regional companies to the federal government to global enterprises.

My academic focus is on multicultural implications across the usability and eLearning fields--learning experiences in which technology empowers the user.
