Design for the speculative present.
I'm a designer working on services at scale. Most recently, I was Head of Design at 18F, a federal government digital services agency. While there, I scaled a design practice and had a variety of other roles, mostly borne out of spending over seven years inside a relatively new org by government standards. As both a practitioner and scholar, my interests largely involve thinking aloud about the ways that velocity and externalities distort civic life in irreparable ways. My consulting and case studies are on my proper website, but you can also just if you want to talk about something.
For years, I wrote about this under the banner of Consequence Design, but I've spent the past few years wondering about more applied ways to actualize these frameworks and thinking into domains across silos. Last year, I was a part-time faculty member at the University of Michigan.
