    I'm about to turn 52.

    I have a BA in Psychology and I'm auto-didactic in the field of graphic design.

    I started my career by "designing" with paper, a typewriter, scissors, a glue sick and a copy machine at Kinko's in my early teens. Later they invented the Mac and I got into desktop publishing. I moved from print design to web design. I've moved from graphic designer to creative director, from Austin, to San Francisco and currently in New York. Now I work in UX.

    I've done a shit ton of other things but they are way too long to mention, as there have been many chapters in my life so far. I'm also one of a last of the New Today peeps here.

    People tell me I look 40.
