About Me
I design and build interactive experiences — whether it’s a digital product on desktop or mobile, an experimental game, or a weird, delightful prototype. By day, I lead design teams at WongDoody NYC. By night, I write code, develop video games, teach design at SVA, and make strange things just to see what happens.
