XOXO 2016
I had a chance to go my first (and probably last) XOXO Fest and it did not disappoint. The community was just so personable and engaging. It wasn't about what you do, but who you are.

I'm a product designer working under the guise of Factory Design. I'm passionate about creating user experiences that remove friction and bring little sparks of joy. Obsessive, deeply curious, the kind of person who can't stop pulling at a problem until it feels right. I've been at this for over a decade and have lived through the craft's evolution from designing in single user apps like Sketch to cloud tools like Figma and now to assisted code.
Originally from California but I've lived in Greenpoint for the past five years with my dog Eleanor and about 20 plants. Off hours I love watching people express themselves through whatever they're best at, whether it's music, art, or anything where someone is in flow. I also enjoy, cooking boxing and I collect museum magnets.
If you want to chat about design, art, smart lighting, or just want to meet my dog, feel free to ping me → or find me walking my usual 18,000 steps.
