Description

I make sophisticated systems feel intuitive. Track record includes time.gov (1999, still running), SpicyNodes (40M users), ProstateCalculator (1.5M patients navigating treatment decisions). Last decade running a word games studio built on a semantic knowledge graph—120M+ connections across 1.7M words, NSF funded ($295K SBIR). Game design taught me progressive disclosure, intrinsic motivation, intrinsic motivation, making the 100th use as rewarding as the first. I apply that to software that isn't games. Judge for IGF, MagFest, CODiE, GEE, Serious Games. Looking for Product/design leadership at Series A–C companies (10–50 people). Developer tools, learning platforms, knowledge products, brain health, creative AI. Teams where I can lead and ship, not just roadmap. Products that need to feel less like enterprise Java circa 2003.
