BIO
Ted, a Director of UX with a passion for elegant design, has forged a career designing for companies large and small - from Fortune 500 companies to fresh, up-and-coming startups. He is a big proponent of the Ruby language, User Experience, and building simplistic and engaging interfaces.
Ted is also a graduate student at UMBC in the Human-Centered Computing program, where he focuses his research on designing software for the cognitively impaired; he believes in building software that is accessible and affordable for all users.
When he's not creating new interfaces, Ted is an avid mountain biker and rock climber. He always starts his day armed with a cup of coffee behind a desk of vicious plastic dinosaurs and howling monkeys.
