👋 Hello there, I’m Craig
Principles
Make it simple. Complex business processes can and must be broken down into digestible chunks for users to complete.
Collaboraction™. The best product design outcomes are created when design + product + development work together in sync.
Explore new virtual connections. After 10 years of remote work, I find innovative ways to engage teams and advance design.
Design should delight. All apps, even HR software, have the opportunity to delight users and make their day.
