| Introduction | I am a long-standing member of R/GA with with over a decade of experience in new media projects. In that time I have worked on more then 30 award-winning projects for the company. As an interaction designer, I focus on developing the user experience for clients, determining content and functionality, and developing information and site architectures, task flows, and interface wire frames. Prior to working as an interaction designer with the company, I helped create and manage the quality assurance group for R/GA. My first project was Netwits, an online multi-player game show in real time for the Microsoft Network. During my tenure I managed a team of testers and engineers a dozen or more strong across well over a hundred projects. I have a BFA in Sculpture and Art Education from The School of Visual Arts. Much of my course work had me working in the New York City public school system and many of the City's major museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, and The American Museum of Natural History. After receiving my degree, I worked as an Assistant Director at Room, a defunct contemporary art gallery in Soho. |
