Bio

Back in 2007 I help start what's now known as Kickstarter. I'm a co-founder of the company and head the design team, where we focus on everything from product design to brand and identity questions. Prior to Kickstarter I started an interaction design studio, a web-only arts magazine, and worked for a large interactive agency. I discovered the web in 1994 in the basement of the Physics building at Purdue University. Haven't looked back since.

I'm passionate about

Designing lightweight and meaningful tools. Form follows function. Cycling, people, the environment.

The TED story

Has yes to occur.
