I'm a seasoned design pro with 26 years of experience designing for a variety of entities- from large corporations like Amazon, to small startups, to nonprofits, to designing for myself with my own startups. I'm from the US and spent 20 years working in Silicon Valley, and have been in Norway for the past 6 years where I worked for design consultancy NoA Ignite and ocean foundation HUB Ocean.
I help organisations scale and grow with design and team leadership, user interface and user experience design,
Design and Sustainability
brand development, digital product design, presentation design and content design. My approach is pragmatic and I work quickly to get beautiful, user-centric results.
I care a lot about our future-so much so that I started a nonprofit called the Hive Initiative to create solutions to make it easier to align ourselves towards a better world.
So in addition to design I can help with sustainability strategy and team engagement.
