I'm a full-stack UX Designer with experience in the following:
– Strategizing with product managers and engineers to define the scope of deliverables required to achieve business and user goals.
– Conducting stakeholder and end-user interviews and design reviews to gain valuable insights into current processes and proposed solutions.
– Gathering quantitative and qualitative research through competitor analysis, heuristic reviews, analytic services, online surveys, usability testing, and user acceptance testing (UAT).
– Collaborating with designers, engineers, and QA teams throughout the development, testing, and implementation phases to ensure product integrity.
– Simplifying complex information architecture (IA) and task flows to improve product usability.
Building static wireframes and interactive prototypes to solidify product form and functionality.
– Documenting UX/UI specifications to ensure the finished product meets all business, technical, and design requirements. 
By day, I’m an instrument, commercial and multi-engine rated pilot and flight instructor (CFI and CFII) fulfilling a childhood dream of being a professional pilot. I have about 740 hours total time with complex, high-performance, high-altitude and tailwheel endorsements, including over 350 hours in an RV-8 and an RV-6A I built and flew around the country.
By night, I'm building a portfolio of small businesses with my wife, Hae-Sin, starting with Josu. Josu is a new brand of flavored sea salts inspired by Asian cuisines. All of our salt comes from our fourth-generation family farm on the tiny island of Imjado, South Korea. Our mission? To help you make memorable meals daily.
Previously, I helped start Climate Changemakers to inspire the climate concerned to be climate activists, started and sold two companies, co-founded two schools for our kids, co-invented the building toy Maker Studio, and built and flew two airplanes around the country.
