About: Sr. Interaction Designer at Ziba Design, where we get to work on an engaging variety of challenges. Host of the blog, History of the Button. Occasional speaker at various events.

My career arrived at interaction design when my paths of writing, information architecture, coding, and design all collided. I love the quaintness of old technology and wonder what we do now will be quaint in the coming decades.
