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. That job set the bar for mission-critical. I’ve applied the same discipline across best-selling games, web platforms, and data-rich operational tools, where content systems and telemetry stay legible and dependable. Growth is easier when a product earns trust. That’s where I add the most value. I work from first principles, then iterate through small experiments, drawing on my creative technologist roots, to understand context and validate ideas early.
