Howdy! I’m Steve, an all-around creative problem solver, and award-winning UX Designer and Product Design leader accomplished at directing cross-functional teams and launching highly complex projects. I am a humble, empathetic, and mission-driven player-coach who has excelled while building teams in start-up environments and big organizations like LEGO.  I am accomplished at design thinking, creative problem-solving, and account management. I have found success by connecting the big picture, the small details, and the project’s scope. I strive for the best interactive experiences by taking into account user personas, data insights, cost, and timelines. I am highly experienced with digital and physical implementations and screenless interactions. The quickest way to bring concepts to life is by visualizing and prototyping to test early and iterate often. Lately, my family and I have 'come home' to Lancaster, PA, after living in Pittsburgh, PA, Austin, TX, and Billund, Denmark, for nearly thirteen years. Now our kids can get to know their grandparents and cousins a little more while. I like to paint and work on projects around the house in my spare time.
