The man behind the beard


Nerd, technologist, designer, team mascot and tip of the spear.

Hi there, I’m Dan and have been in the design/tech space for over 15 years. I’ve worked in the finance, technology, big data, automotive and healthcare industries on large teams, small teams and–at times–as a one-man operation.

I thrive on creative challenges, technology limitations, building teams and dreams alike.
In my recent years I have been laser focused on creating, guiding and often times repairing multi disciplinary design and product teams.

Having experience leading both technology and design partners through various agile oriented landscapes - it brings me great joy bringing new and innovating products to life.

Using human centric, data driven (test! test! iterated! test!) and accessible design standards to craft delightful yet functional experiences.
