Currently I hold the title of Visionary, and as such am not confined to a single company or organization. In otherwords, I'm doing a bit of this and a bit of that, so if you need a bit of this, or a little of that, then let me know.

Prior to that I worked for Avenue A | Razorfish as an Analyst with the Advanced Optimization team. I tracked user behavior on websites and examined conversion rates, friction points, and other site issues, then produced key findings and recommendations to improve the site or process flow. Clients included ebay, O2, AT&T, and Cingular (now AT&T), among many others.

I am also a drummer in the local Seattle alternative indie rock band The Back Burners. We play occasionally at local venues around Seattle such as The Blue Moon, Mr. Spot's Chai House, and the High Dive. I play on a purplish Tama Starclassic Birch/Bubinga kit, and use Vic Firth sticks. Currently I'm fond of the SD4 Combo. I also use Zildjian cymbals.

Prior to working with AA|RF, I was an Analyst with Accenture in their Seattle office. I was in the Business and Systems Integration Consulting workforce in Communications & High Tech operating group. I worked on projects at Microsoft in their telecom and call center group and a worked briefly on a project with the Office 2007 team prior to my departure. I also worked on an engagement at Starbucks doing spend analysis.

In the fall of 2004 I made a trip to Europe with my roommate Ben. I visited France, Germany, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, England, and Wales. The trip was amazing and I hope to go back soon. Perhaps one day I'll be able to use the vacation days that I accumulate...

Prior to that I graduated in June 2004 from the Univeristy of Washington in Seattle. I graduated with a B.S. in Informatics from The Information School, and maintained a 3.4 GPA. I was also the Communications Officer for the Informatics Undergraduate Association (IUGA), the Informatics student group.

I also worked as an undergraduate research at Intel Research Seattle. I worked on the Place Lab project, wich explored location-enhanced computing applications. My two main research leads were Drs. Anthony LaMarca and Ian Smith. While on the Place Lab project I helped design the original proof-of-concept demonstration for the UbiComp 2003 conference in Seattle. I also worked on the public website (placelab.org), did user interface design, wrote custom Java statisitcal packages, and various other tasks.
