Industrial Design + Interaction Design = Web Developer? Not quite. But I do have an industrial design and human computer interaction background. Currently I am working with PNC Bank as an interaction and interface designer for their online and mobile product line. Take all the knowledge about physical form and apply it to a Motorola Razr (I do miss the StarTac). Feel free to take a look around. If you are interested in any of the full process for the projects or what I am working on now with PNC, feel free to contact me and I'll send you a link.
As a disclaimer, I know not all the links have the right CSS associate with them and some of the page titles are wrong. I also know I shoulnt upload a new site unless it is polished and shined, ready for consumption. Being said, I had to get the old site down. Feel free to let me know of any gross errors with the site but it is an ongoing process.
