As a digital design professional with over 15 years of experience driving success in online properties, I have mastered the ins and outs of front-end and UI design. After honing and executing these specialties to reach diverse company goals, I began focusing primarily on user interaction. Now, I spend the majority of my time brainstorming how’s and why’s of our work with professionals who are interested in supporting a balance between business objectives and user experience.

MY WORK STYLE

PREPARE

Dig up history, get context.

ANALYZE

What are we doing? Why are we doing it? Who are we doing it for?

FORMULATE

I love it when a plan comes together!

BRAINSTORM

Kick it around, knowledge share.

SKETCH

Communicating things visually is fun.

ORGANIZE

Keep all the parts moving.

Bridget O., Portfolio Marketing Manager
Sean is able to easily digest business objectives and articulate them in a clear creative strategy.
Adrian T., Interactive Marketing Professional
Sean takes a holistic approach to web projects and has a real knack for optimizing process and visualizing all the pieces of the project and how they relate to the whole to form a cohesive user-centered experience.

SKILLSET

A good mix of creative and technical skills are essential when you’re in the business of providing creative solutions to partners.

I’m a good balance of creative curiosity with a keen eye and a tech-savvy with a critical mind. Why we do things is just as important as what it looks like.
