Editor-In-Chief, Editorial Strategist

Electronic Arts, Global Marketing

At EA I managed parts of our marketing and development practices in collaboration with studios. I also acted as a liaison between our newsroom, community engagement teams, and the technical teams to deliver the campaigns for our games launches and on-going live series. Lastly, I was in charge of spearheading partnerships with Google, Twitch, and outside vendors and creative agencies.

Interaction Designer

Freelance

I helped deliver product and interaction design solutions for several different startups and clients in 2016. This includes a product for Prudential Life Insurance where loved ones shared stories of lost loved ones, a digital scoreboard technology for high school gyms, an advertising creation and reporting tool used by the NYTs and Atlantic Magazine (later acquired by Snapchat), and lastly helping to design a urban planning cartography product with Calthorpe Analytics (a Berkeley urban planning firm) called Urban Footprint.

Fellow, Product Design

Code for America

Our team of three built a financial wellness tool as open source software in less than a year! Organizations interested in learning more about the financial wellness of those they enlist use it freely. We fully deployed the products as a survey and results presented in an aggregate form of visualized data. The outcome is to assist businesses and organizations in knowing what benefits they should offer to help people be financially grounded. It's been incorporated by the Albuquerque City Government and other not-for-profits in New Mexico.

Senior Features Designer

NFL Media, Newsroom

At the NFL I helped build editorial and digital projects for a season. Projects I contributed to include a digital feature called Journeys (Telly Award 2015), NFL UP (Won a Clio and multiple Telly awards, a Webby, and was honored by a Sports Emmy nominations in 2015), a Super Bowl bracket interactive that is still on rotation, and a partnership with Google and YouTube on the NFL digital video strategy.

UX Design Intern

New York City Subways, Office of the President

I was a UX designer on a team tasked with overhauling the entire enterprise asset management for trains, bridges, and buses. The MTA in NYC is an agency of over one-hundred thousand employees and vendors. 11 unions. In my role I was mostly building relationships with stakeholders and sharing their interest across a slew of RFPs we created for bidding. I did so by use of surveys, interviews, brainstorms, workshops, and detailed documenting of organization journeys. We also were informed by a lot of quantitative and qualitative data analysis and synthesis.

Designer

T.Moss Design

As one half of a two person design firm I strategized, designed, and coded websites. Planned out, print designed, and press checked huge catalogs. We made anything and everything our clients requested. From product videos to bus wraps. Eager and driven to design for a living, I came to understand the way to be successful was to gain clients longstanding trust. Success came fast— we went from a garage to a nice office downtown in just a few years. I am most proud of our work with Liberty Flags. We created multiple e-commerce websites, yearly catalogs, SEO strategy and keyword campaigns (both organic and paid), product demonstration videos, and podcast. And in doing so Liberty Flags is now one of the largest flag vendors in the world.
