About

I'm a Graphic Designer with a background in UX & Web and a degree in Computer Graphics Technologies from Purdue University. Currently I work on Humana's UX team as a designer with a penchant for mobile devices on a highly agile software development team. I enjoy looking towards the future of technology, and believe in making websites that not only look good now but will continue to serve the user's needs in the face of a shifting technological landscape. I've worked on 4 apps that have been launched to the iTunes app store so far. (MyHumana, HumanaVitality, RightSource, and MyHealth (previously Humana for Members))

  I currently work on Humana’s UX team as a designer with a penchant for mobile devices. I spent 9 months in a lean agile software development practice (Humana’s Digital Experience Center) performing full stack design work. That means everything from inception, conducting user research and usability testing sessions, wire framing and high fidelity mockups. I’ve been a part of four mobile apps currenty in the iTunes and Google app stores, and every web project is designed with a “mobile first” strategy.
