Where did I come from?


I've been leading digital product transformation and evolution for 25 years.


My Timeline


I recall launching my first website in the mid 90s when the Internet wasn't a household name, AOL was cool, and UX didn't exist (at least we didn't know it did). We blazed new trails and claimed the title 'webmaster'.
