About Neal Smith

Empathetic and passionate Product Designer with Project Management experience. 15+ years of experience creating innovative consumer products and entertainment assets with over 100 designs on the market. Demonstrated leadership in facilitating successful product pipelines from concept to market with design & project ownership. Key partner in multiple large scale multi-faceted brand activations. My products have featured on the likes of NBC, Forbes, Sports Illustrated, CBS, CNN & Fox Business. Passionate about advancing accessibility and driven to make more content inclusive and equitable across the product development lifecycle and throughout product teams. My unique skills and abilities come from a hands-on understanding of \"PLAY\". I believe that you cannot create without playing and that PLAY is actually the root of health, innovation, problem-solving and, of course, design. By taking the time to play, it allows people to engage and experience the world in entirely new ways. It repels convention and those that are frozen in the here-and-now.
