I am Associate Director of Design and User Experience at WGBH Educational Foundation. I am a user experience designer, information design and datavis connoisseur, science geek gone history buff, and drawn to the allure of the digital humanities. This past year, I headed up a team working under a research grant to help American Experience re-envision it’s digital strategy and presence online. HistoryDeck is part of the outcome of this work. I also teach Interactive Information Design and Data Visualization at Northeastern University.
