Hi! I'm Jim

I'm a full-cycle UX & Product Designer living in Upstate New York.

I currently work as a Senior UX Designer for Eagleview Technologies.

Prior to that, I was a full-cycle UX Designer for REDCOM Laboratories working with cross functional teams performing full cycle UX design on multiple REDCOM B2B SaaS products including Secure Client for Android, Secure Client for iOS, Secure Client for Windows and Web Applications for Sigma including REDCOM Secure Conferencing, C2 Console, and many others.

Education

In 2017, I received an MFA in Visual Communication Design from Rochester Institute of Technology focusing on the User Experience design process, user research, visual design and motion design.

I also have a BA in Urban and Regional Planning from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. While this sounds like a strange combination, my background in ethnography, community interviews, data gathering, concensus building, and navigating government bodies, policies and residents are an ideal background for UX.
