Over 20+ years, I’ve collaborated on hundreds of projects across many different industries.

Many can never be shared due to confidentiality — but it’s likely that you carry digital experiences I invented in your pocket every day. You might be one of the 90,000+ students for whom I helped reinvent online education. Or you might have benefitted from one of the wellness products or medical devices I was involved in creating.

The following are a small sampling of publicly-shareable projects from my time at Daylight and IDEO. The links will take you to relevant Daylight or IDEO case studies, as well as press releases, Wikipedia articles, etc.

Pearson Q-Interactive Clinical assessments traditionally involve lugging cumbersome bundles of test kits around, and tedious paper-based scoring. I designed the web platform for their new all-digital offering, Q-interactive. Learn more — **Pearson Q-Interactive**

I have a long history of helping Immersion find innovative applications for their groundbreaking haptic feedback technology, and some of it has been widely commercialized. The specifics of much of the Daylight work are confidential, but several inventions have been patented, and those can be viewed here.

Aardvark was a social search engine that finds the perfect person to answer any question in minutes. While a partner at Daylight, I consulted with them to define their design process. They were soon acquired by Google. Google eventually closed down the service in an effort to reduce the number of different offerings. You can read all about Aardvark here.

Twenty years ago there were no UX precedents for capturing, managing or sharing photos on phones. My very first project at IDEO was helping to design the UX of the “eyemodule” series of accessories. They added camera functionality to the Handspring PDA, creating the first camera-enabled handheld device.
It was especially cool to get to do some design sessions with Rob Haitani, designer of the Palm OS.

Before Flickr, Picasa or Instagram took over the world, I invented and developed an internal photo sharing site called IDEO Photobase with colleague Graham Hicks.
It’s quite amazing to see how many of the elements of this site are present in the commercial offerings that came later on.

Way before Digg and Reddit, I created a social content sharing website called IDEO Netbox along with colleague Mark Chance.
The concept was simple — allow people to share interesting links that they had found, and allow others to comment on those posts. The most recent posts could be seen on the front page, and you could browse threads based on topic. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?

I was fortunate to get to spend some time with Bill. He was a co-founder of IDEO, a visionary, and he literally coined the term “interaction design”. During the last couple of years, Bill was working on his definitive book on that topic. I didn’t play any kind of key role, but sometimes Bill sought feedback on his drafts from colleagues. Like many others, I was happy to respond. Bill’s thoughtful and human approach was a big influence on my development as a designer.
