I am based in Columbus, Ohio currently working as a User Experience Manager at Morgan Stanley Investment Management.
For most of my ten years in UX/product design, I've had the privilege of joining Fortune 100 companies early in their design maturity. This journey has led me to develop skills within both research & design, and then grow/manage a design team.
I live happily with my wonderful wife, my delightful son, and a sweet dog, who is indirectly responsible for many good ideas that come to mind while walking her. In my free time, I enjoy tennis, writing, and am an avid Apple Notes user.
