Product Designer & Developer

Building products at the intersection of design and engineering.


Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

Independent design and engineering work doesn't always fit neatly inside a company. Some of the best work happens at the edges — between studios, between disciplines, between what a client thinks they need and what they actually need.

Experiment
2020
Politweets
Built over a weekend with the Character140 collective — a group of DC-area developers and designers. Politweets scraped Twitter's public timeline for presidential candidate mentions and displayed them in real time, homepage styled like a digital newspaper. Went live just before the New Hampshire primaries. Covered by HuffPost, Mashable, ZDNet, and ReadWriteWeb. Six to nine months later, Twitter shipped their own version at election.twitter.com.
Experiment
2008
Twittertale
One of the earliest experiments using the Twitter API to track keywords across the public timeline — built with Jason Garber and the Character140 crew initially just to entertain friends. Twittertale scanned every public tweet for swear words and ranked which users had the biggest potty mouth. Covered by Mashable. The same keyword-tracking mechanic became the foundation for Politweets a few weeks later.
