How I got here.
The son of an American Department of Defence worker from Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA, I moved as a young teen to Germany. I spent my formative years in this multi-cultural, multi-lingual environment. I traveled every chance I had as a youth.
Earning a bachelors of Science degree in Journalism in Oregon was one of my few sojourns back to the United States before I moved to Australia in 1986 looking for work in Journalism, but taking a job in retail. I became a Citizen.
In 1988, I jumped on the Desktop Publishing revolution and built a small ad agency, developing direct and freelance relationships with other agencies. There were many challenges bringing digital graphics into the mainstream. It was a good education.
In 1994, I formed a lasting relationship with Adrenalin, and worked a full 15 year career there covering many responsibilities, from digital finished artist through to Head of Digital.
I started doing web development in 1996, and took Adrenalin into the digital age. I was doing UX and UI for a regular stream of sales promotion and trade portals with the occasional corporate website coming through. As time went by, I shifted more towards leadership and UX and away from UI.
As Adrenalin began to wind down around 2008, I began to look for more challenging opportunities where I could apply the depth of my skill and continue working on the leading edge.
