Resume

I am currently working as a Product Strategist at Civic Center.

I also continue to work with Red Antenna, a design studio based in New York. In 2002, I worked closely with founders James Reeves and and Candy Chang to help launch the company, managing client relationships and designing projects for web, print, film, and broadcast. For the past four years, James and Steve Baker have run the studio on a day to day basis, launching sites for an impressive client list.

I recently worked as a Design Director for both consumer and advertising products Yahoo. My first assignment was to oversee the redesign of the Autos and Real Estate properties which launched in 2008. I also worked on several cross-property strategic initiatives for Media division. In the spring of 2008, I accepted an offer to work on the redesign of the company's display advertising software, Apt.
