I am an innovation and user experience strategist. I’ve been working in the field of new product development, user research, user experience, and product strategy for twenty years, and have had the opportunity to work in an extremely diverse range of industries, everything from mobile communications to toothpaste. I am Assistant VP of Marketing at the global innovation firm frog design, overseeing corporate marketing, strategy and thought leadership for frog and its 10,000 person parent company, the Aricent Group.

I am the author of Innovation X: Why a Company’s Toughest Problems are its Greatest Advantage, and I speak worldwide at conferences and workshops on the topics of innovation, design, and user research.

I have been blogging here since 2005, but these days I primarily write on my frog blog, Amphibious, and for Harvard Business Review. I’ve written about a lot of different things in the realms of design, technology, culture and business here over the years, so feel free to look through the archives (I’ve got a few favorites of my own picked out).

Of course I’m on Twitter if you want the latest and greatest, and LinkedIn for all the gory details.

You can find out more about me here, and also if you are interested in having me speak at a conference, executive roundtable, or workshop, please find details about that on my Speaking page.
