Hi there!

A picture of me sitting at a table playing a board game. I am wearing a batman t-shirt, smiling, and looking at something happening outside the frame. The table is in front of a large window where you can see that it is a sunny day outside. I'm a designer, technologist, handyman, gamer, and I occasionally write.

I consider myself retired from my job as a designer and I have been enjoying my time away from the world of big-tech.

I have been spending time doing other things that I like.

Work

I worked for Illumina on streamlining the analysis of genomics data for bioinformaticians and clinicians. Before that, I worked for Varian Medical Systems where I was working on chemotherapy treatment management systems. I was a designer at Qlik and before that, I worked for many years for Macadamian where I designed many systems, mostly focused on healthcare.

I was not always a designer. I started my career as a programmer. This gives me a unique perspective on problems and a unique combination of technical software engineering skill and User Centered Design knowledge.

Current projects

I've been learning about game programming recently. I've spent time teaching myself Godot and Rust and I like it a lot.

I also play a ridiculous amount of Space Engineers. In fact, I have written a couple of mods for it that are published on the Steam workshop.
