About

I’ve been making websites since 1998 and am still thrilled by the promise of hypertext. I believe strongly in inclusive, accessible design for all humans.

I live in Providence, RI, with my wife and two extremely cute dogs. I will likely talk with you at length about how we can all get free, being from the South, or riding bikes.

work-wise…

I spent the first season of my career as director of digital experience for a large academic library, moonlighted for a year as a director of product at a diversity and inclusion consultancy, then pivoted to civic tech, working as an information architect in design systems governance for VA.gov. I’m now in the private sector, leading a team of front-end engineers to deliver a cohesive, accessible design system and high-quality web experiences.

On the side, I run a small consultancy, Humans Make Tech, to help small organizations maintain, repair, and rebuild their websites.

And because apparently I don’t think about it enough, as of 2026 I’m a co-instigator of the newly formed Rhode Island UX Collective.
