Greetings and welcome!

A tad about me. I am a dad, a husband and I have 2 children. I have lived on the Central coast of California (San Luis Obispo, CA area) since 2015. I came here to help a company called Mindbody where I managed a Mobile app design team. I ended up staying after leaving that company in 2019, because we love it here. I had a break during the quiet time (COVID) and decided to start working remote. I have been a remote FTE ever since. I am not interested in changing my ‘remote’ status.

If anyone is looking for someone with my seasoned experience in Mobile software design, or consulting or hardware design please feel free to reach out directly to me here or on LinkedIn. Cheers!

Quick hits about UX/UI

• UX is many processes and it’s a good idea to remain in low fidelity for the majority of the time when creating net new experiences.

• UI is design systems and the components within.

• Design systems beg for accessible, solid component libraries and clear patterns; this will set things in motion for faster and easier development. Bottlenecks in software development are what slow evolution of a product and designing pixel perfect up to the bitter end is throw away. Save that for your component library.

the Design process is messy and the need for documenting and pixel perfect design is becoming superfluous and costly.
