About: Hi -
I'm a software designer/product manager (currently at Unicast), and get the chance to do some coding now and again as well.
I'm interesting in meeting whoever really - I'm currently wrestling with incorporating IxD practices into an agile development environment (so I'll be at the Patton workshop) and hopefully building a product design team out in the not too distant future.
I like music (and bars), so if anyone knows any decent local band playing or whatever, that could be fun. I'm also interested in what the interaction design program at SCAD is like (not as a potential student, just as someone curious who went to school too long ago for there to be any interaction design programs), so I hope we get some insight on that.

What type of IxD do primarily you do? (Web, desktop, mobile web, mobile app, devices/hardware, services, etc.)
I like a mixed bag - have done Web,
desktop, and some mobile; currently working on tools that work inside Flash
Who is your favorite author or speaker about IxD?
hard to pick a favorite. looking forward to Bill Buxton - I liked his book.
What do you hope to gain most by attending Interaction08?
Hopefully I'll learn something :-)
What topics are you most interested in?
IxD and agile development is one thing I am going for in particular (the Patton workshop). It's something I am working on now.
