Some of the organisations I'm proud to have been part of
What I've been up to lately
For almost two years I was part of the lending design team at
SoFi (Social Finance),
managing a small but mighty team as we help people get their money right from 2021-2023.
Prior to that spent 3+ years leading design, processes and culture at
realtor.com in California.
Migrating across the Pacific
came after a decade of design, UI engineering at
realestate.com.au
where I was part of the team that made
Hack Day
a thing.
I had long loved the
Bird App
but it's dead to me now. Making a ruckus over on Threads.
Volunteering as President, I lead the
Gridiron Victoria American Football League
for 5 years and tripled the size of the organisation.
Also created something for
cheap eats across Australia
which is now the largest, most up-to-date resource in the country for happy hours, food and drink specials.
When I grow up I want to be
CXO.
About this site
When the internet started it was wild. Geocities. My Space. CSSZengarden.
The possibilities were endless.
Content sites are covered in
ads, GDPR and cookies links, email sign ups and popups
.
I've used Wordpress and templated
sites extensively, but wanted to try something different.
Old school html and css, accessibility and performance & web standards markup.
Static pages. Have also tried to keep Javascript to a minimum.
I'm also tracking activity with Google Analytics, part of the minimal javascript through the site.
Working on a way you can turn that off.
