Hi there. Here's a bit about me.
I have a Bachelor's degree in Information Systems from BYU and a Master's degree in User Experience from ASU. My career over the past several years might be best categorized as a "UX Analyst." If UX Designers who can code are unicorns, maybe I'm some sort of three-headed dog with my background in information systems and data analytics. While I've worn many hats in my career thus far, I always come back to my passion for truly understanding people and designing solutions to fit their needs. I currently manage the UX team at an ISP company called Sparklight.
I believe work-life balance is critical. I'm a husband, father, and active Latter-day Saint. I write music and design games (both of the board and video variety). Above all, I thrive as a family man and love my wife and kids dearly. Minivans are a crowning achievement of human-centered design. Change my mind.
