I've been working in the user experience field since 2000. My main focus has been helping corporate environments adopt sustainable UX practices.

I consider myself a pragmatic idealist. I'm pragmatic in my approach to applying UX methods by adapting to the company's culture and technical environment. I'm an idealist in that I will always believe that user experience is an essential area of expertise that makes the difference in the success or failure of a product.
