A little bit about me:
I lead the digital experience practice at IDEO, where I provide strategic leadership for client relationships. I work with organizations around the world to design products, services, and business models that create positive social and environmental impact. I specialize in helping companies and other organizations understand, shape, and ultimately capitalize on their internal and external networks to address cultural, economic, social, and environmental challenges with greater agility.
I founded the Designers Accord, the global coalition of designers, corporate leaders, and educational institutions focused on integrating sustainability into all practice and production. More than 100,000 designers and organizations worldwide now participate in the Designers Accord.
Prior to IDEO, I was Executive Creative Director at frog design, where I led the global design research and design strategy practices. Previously, I was an Associate Partner at Pentagram Design, where I built the interaction design practice in San Francisco. I also worked as an Associate Creative Director at vivid studios.
My work has been highlighted in multiple publications, and in 2008, I was named a Fast Company "Master of Design" and a Fortune magazine "Guru You Should Know."
I lecture on design throughout the international community, and am an adjunct professor at California College of the Arts. I hold a master's degree in cultural theory and design from Yale University and a BA from Swarthmore College.
