Hi, I'm the Creative Director at Causes after Votizen was acquired in 2013. I created elegant.ly, was the lead designer for Mint, and Designer-in-Residence for Bessemer. This is my tumblr on brands, interaction design, and user experience, with a splash of politics.

Jaredโ€™s team interviewed hiring managers and asked what the best designers in their teams did: tell stories, critiquing, present effectively, facilitate meeting and align people.

We wake up every day passionate about one thing: bringing people closer together. We believe that just as Twitter is building the town square, and Facebook is building the newspaper, that Path will build the homes. We receive notes every day from passionate users that tell us: my family has never been closer than they are now because of Path. This drives us more deeply than anything else to continue to innovate in how people connect, share, and communicate so that they can become closer to the people they care most about. We believe we are only at the beginning of the development of how humans will interact through technology. Finding new ways to bring people closer together is what keeps us coming in to work every day.

…when I was in a purpose-driven community, I felt safe to push myself and try for things that seemed out of my reach. As a member of a community, I grew because others pushed me; failure didnโ€™t seem so scary because we were taking risks together…

If you are going to do something that terrifies you, first find a group.

Thanks Evite for the bad UI fodder.
