SXSW Mobile Web Application

For SXSW, Ascentium created a mobile website “app” for attendees to give speaker feedback in real time. This allowed SXSW attendees to make informed decisions about which panels and presentations to attend, and follows the familiar thumbs up/down model of the SXSW “panel picker.” I gathered requirements and prototyped the site, while working with development and visual design.

I am a designer and researcher focused on creating holistic experiences at a variety of scales that traverse multiple touch points. My work includes solutions for web, software, mobile, consumer products, way-finding, built environment, and service design.

I have demonstrated skills in user-centered design and research, a wide variety of 2D and 3D computer graphics applications, effective visual and written communication, project management, education, and facilitating collaboration.

My professional experience is complemented by advanced academic work in traditional design craft, user research, and cognitive psychology. Having earned MFA and MS degrees, I teach design at both the undergraduate and graduate level.
