Designing what makes shared experiences work
I came up wrangling live graphics for hurricanes at WCPX-TV (CBS) in Orlando. Clarity on-screen was a lifeline for millions of people in the storm, and that job set my bar for visual communication. My work remains focused on making complex systems understandable without flattening the world around them.

I would certainly recommend Gary as a UX designer who can tell a team what they need to do to build the foundation, and then follow that team through the entire building process. He's also brings a very unique style to team-dynamics that is both entertaining and valuable, and was often a big driver of attention to detail for an entire team.

Gary's contributions to standardizing interface design on the sports titles while I was at EA was nothing short of inspiring. The shear magnitude of standardizing styles across multiple game titles and studios worldwide was an amazing feat. Gary is super passionate about his work and strives to do everything possible to bring it to the next level. I learned a lot about UI working with him and would recommend him to anyone asking.
