More useful everyday products

My passion is creating transformative products, experiences and businesses that accelerate the change we want to see in the world. My craft is rooted in interaction design—specifically at the intersection of people and emerging technologies, resulting in more delightful and useful everyday products and services.

Over the past two decades at IDEO, I’ve helped lead IDEO Europe, Product Design in North America, and worked across everything from retail to gaming, telecommunications, media, and health. My time at IDEO was punctuated by two years on the IKEA global strategic communications team, building communications and brand strategy, launching new products, and helping the business become more innovative and customer focused.

In addition to fostering IDEO’s design community, I have taught human-centered design courses at Hyper Island, where I studied digital media and creative technology and mentored startups at Seedcamp. I frequently lecture about the power of design at various schools and organizations.
