About

When I'm not busy wondering why we are here, you can find me pretending to be a product manager or a designer. I may not have all the answers, but I know where to find them (usually on the internet). I'm a jack-of-all-trades and a master of some. On the weekends, I enjoy consulting for start-ups and dabbling in psychology. I obsess over user experience and enjoy mentoring. Basically, if you need it done, I can probably do it (or at least I know a guy). Contact me for all your diverse professional needs!
