I believe good product design emerges from four things: Simplicity, evidence, inclusion, and purpose. By day I work with thoughtful and brilliant people at TED, where I direct research and development for our technology team. By moonlight I try to keep learning about how this world works and where it's headed.

Sometimes I write about things like ethics and behavioral manipulation in design, and give talks for conferences and events like Designers & Geeks, Design Driven, Canvas Conf, SearchLove, FOWD, and Web Directions. Sometimes I make small toys to amuse myself, like the UX Job Title Generator, a Deepak Chopra inspired Lorem Ipsum generator, and a Chrome plugin that turns LinkedIn profile images into dogs.
