Yeah, that's me.
I co-founded a golf app. Luckily for users, I'm far better at app design than golf.
CS
unlike most designers you meet, i have a computer science degree. in other words, i can speak dev.
I keep my workspace nice and tidy. Computer(s), lamp, phone, and some coffee.

the greatest number in the history of civilization. Griffey. kobe.
...me (lol).

i'm a k-state alum and fan—the latter is usually painful.

i type in lowercase and write in uppercase. keeps things fresh. (and legible.)
design is never done. shhh, don't wake up my kids.

not to brag, but they cumulatively net me $0 per year in supplemental income.
i was once featured by Adobe for their character animator product showcase, for a video that now has 115K+ views.

kansas city is where i call home.
i've been a digital designer since day one.
i didn't come up through some fine arts curriculum—i have a degree in computer science. and long before that, I was bootlegging a copy of every piece of design software i could get my hands on as a kid. Photoshop, Microsoft FrontPage, whatever. i've been designing websites and apps since "websites" and "apps" became a thing, not to mention motion graphics. naturally, i made a career of it.
by the way, that computer science degree? sure makes adapting to the age of AI a helluva lot easier. which is nice.
most of my attention nowadays is focused on leading the next crop of designers who'll do things I can scarcely imagine. and I can't wait to see what they come up with next.
