Artefact is an award winning technology product design and development company based in the Seattle area. For nearly 8 years, Artefact has made a name for itself by combining the qualities of digital and physical design and interaction in new and inspiring ways. As a Design Lead, my role was to lead projects and design teams to drive results in three key areas: Quality, Profitablity and Best Place to Work. I found this simple combination of goals brought to bear the full range of my skillset: Design skill and expertise (Quality), Organization and results-driven thinking (Profitability) and Leadership and Communication (Best Place to Work).

For nearly four years, I led design efforts within the PC Client Solutions Division - a division in Intel that focuses on developing innovative computing solutions and creating compelling user experiences which are ultimately delivered to the industry through its many OEM partnerships.

Carbon Design Group is a small but highly successful design and engineering consultancy based in Seattle. In the years I worked at Carbon, I had the pleasure of working with an excellent design team creating many successful, award-winning products ranging from housewares, to consumer electronics, construction equipment to high-end medical and diagnostic equipment. My roles and responsibilities ranged from proposal-writing to concept development and design implementation to program management, the full spectrum.

1-year internship with the GE Consumer Products division. My role was to work hard and learn...in the span of a year I had invaluable experiences working from concept to production on several product platforms.
