Experience

1. Partner, Chief Design Officer

   Bessemer Alliance

   Apr 2012 — Present · Pittsburgh, PA, US

   Technology, culture and markets are evolving faster than ever. An effective design process enables us to identify the opportunities that will yield the greatest value and to devise the solutions that will make them a reality. At Bessemer Alliance, we leverage human centered, evidence-based design processes to build business strategies and design amazing products and services. How we blend these activities, is what truly sets us apart. As Chief Design Officer, I ensure that an effective, evidence-based design process is place and observed with each client engagement. This typically involves a mix of user research, participatory design, interaction design, prototyping, user testing, and visual design. In our five years of operation, we have been fortunate to work with companies ranging in scale from startups to Fortune 100, in industrial and consumer markets, and on continents across the globe. As technology gains a stronger footing in the decision making and value creation processes in our lives, we at Bessemer Alliance look forward to shaping a future that is rewarding for all.
