I'm a husband and dad living in Wichita, Kansas. I'm also a Designer on the Platform Ecosystem team at Discord.
Selected projects
My best work is built on the ability of a team from different functions to come together and work harmoniously as a single unit. No work is done in a vacuum and none of this was singularly "my" work. Just want to put that out there. I stand on the shoulders of every person I've been on a team with over the years and likely, so do you.
Discord Activities
I'm a Senior-level IC working closely with cross-functional folks to bring activities to the Discord platform.
Building a communication platform from scratch
First Senior design hire. Working to increase acquisition and retention for our social casual gaming product.
Iterating on the touchless experience
We spent a couple of sprints making it easier for folks to use the touchless sign in feature during the early days of COVID-19 lockdowns.
Multi-day booking & health checks
I Designed concept-car versions of what would later become multi day booking.
Techdegree office hours
My small team was able to move the student win-back needle by offering more obvious and cohesive access to mentorship and group conversation.
Tools for Home Cooks
I was the founding product designer for Mealthy recipes and led product design and Engineering for a time in a player/coach role.
