Longer Biography

I’m an interface designer, filmmaker, and periodic musician. I live in San Francisco and am currently working at Meta. My previous company, Cocoon, was acquired by Substack in 2021. Before that, I was the lead designer for Facebook Live.

In 2011 I cofounded Firespotter Labs (now Dialpad). We built and launched 4 products: UberConference, Nosh, NoshList and Jotly. As creative director and design lead, I worked on all aspects of the products, from the interface design to the marketing videos. Some exciting highlights were winning TC Disrupt in 2012, making the frontpage of the Wall Street Journal, and launching a redesigned UberConference.

After a great run, in 2014 I left Firespotter to start Moonbase. We focused on startup promo videos, many of which can be seen on the site.
