Selected work

Most of my working life has been inside agencies (Huge, AKQA, Siegel+Gale), and since 2021 in-house at Corning. These are the case studies I can show.

  • Corning2021–present

    In-house. Among other things, The Progress Report and the 175 Years microsite; case studies to come.

  • Designed and built jettheworld.com in about six weeks on Sanity and Next.js, following Rarefy’s rebrand, so the team could edit their own site.

  • Bristol Myers SquibbSiegel+Gale · 2020

    The design team wrote the implementation guidance — CodePen models, polyfills, IE fallbacks — so the built site matched the design.

  • Houghton Mifflin HarcourtSiegel+Gale · 2017–2018

    Replaced single-category program pages with a many-to-many taxonomy for HMH Education, and prototyped title search on the scraped catalog so HMH Books could treat its title-management system as the system of record.

  • MilbankSiegel+Gale · 2016

    Surfaced the firm’s news on attorney pages from structure and metadata the site already had.

  • My VerizonAKQA · 2016

    Wrote the business rules that ordered the home-screen feed by account status — they lived in a spreadsheet — and built an Angular prototype that proved them on real content.

  • Extracted the data points buried in existing articles into a taxonomy, used it to scope content development, and had a browser prototype running about six months before comps would have allowed.
