Look ma, no vowels!
It's an engineer! It's an artist! It's...
A developer-
turned-designer
fighting for delightful, memorable interactions.
"Who are you?"
I am a Masters in Human-Computer Interaction recent graduate from Carnegie Mellon University.
That means I design, I program, I talk to users, and I plaster my life with post-it notes.
I spent a year in Madeira, Portugal working on our Master's Capstone project for Portugal Telecom.
That means I researched for, designed, and coded an iPad app for the biggest company in Portugal.
I graduated in December 2011 and can relocate & start immediately.
Lucky you.
Superheroes need jobs too. That means you should get in touch with me about open positions in user experience, interaction design, or innovation + strategy.
"No really.
Who *are* you?"
I've coded ray tracer algorithms, designed kiddie pools at an inflatables factory in China, studied anthropology in Japan, and conducted contextual inquiries at the Foreign Ministry of Portugal.
I grew up with a pet turtle and a level 72 Bulbasaur in Virginia Beach, VA.
My favorite IDE is TextMate, my favorite day is Mayday, I bake baguettes, and I occasionally blog to have something to read when I'm old.
Oh right. It's pronounced [Nnn-guh], a nasal sound produced by pressing your tongue up to the roof of your mouth, like the final half a syllable of "talking" or "playing".
