TurboTax
I've been work on TurboTax for over three years now, and have had the chance to work on almost all areas of the close to $1 Billion/yr product. I am currently one of two leads responsible for delivering a cohesive end-to-end customer experience.

TurboTax FAFSA
About a year ago Intuit gave us the nod to work on our own projects in our "white space". I initially pitched the idea to senior execs, then teamed up with two folks who had a shared interest in the solution. I led the customer research, interaction design, and ended up coding much of the front end, learning jQuery along the way. It was a small team and a lot of fun to pull together in a few months. For Intuit, this has led to many opened doors in the education space. |

The Hood
A kitchen remodel with a bit of love. In this non-work related project, I managed to use a hood as a hood, imagine that. See the process of creating a new hood and vent for my kitchen.

eBay Reviews & Guides
As the UI lead on the project, I was responsible for designing
a system that would allow the eBay community to share their
knowledge with others in the community. Through research,
wireframes, focus groups, and user testing, the team delivered
a highly scalable product that houses the thousands of guides
and product reviews contributed by the community.

Team Mail
|
Sun Microsystems Team Mail
With a five person team of HCI masters students, we set
out to explore the realm of collaborative email. Through the
use of contextual inquiries, diary studies, focus groups,
personas, usability testing, and other techniques, we developed
a functional product that allowed knowledge workers to more
efficiently work together. |

Squeeze Drop |
Squeeze Drop MP3 Player
Working with two other HCI masters students I developed
an wearable MP3 player targeted for teenage girls that would
develop an emotional tie with the user. Through contextual
inquiries, focus groups and other methods, we created a device
that resonated well with the teens. The use of a squeeze based
interface and a yin-yang style synching interaction created
a device that was elegant, sexy and achieved a "cool"
from our finicky audience. |
