"...Osmosis (the largely intuitive absorption of skills and values) is as important in interaction-design education as is factual information transfer." -Terry Winograd My portfolio is a reflection of the diverse nature of the major of Interaction Design. Encompassing the fields of Computer Science, Product Design, Digital and Studio Art, Psychology, and Communications,Interaction Design requires a deep foundation in the design process as it relates to many arenas, as well as a firm background in gaining and then translating user insight into tangible ideas and prototypes. Computer Science Human-Comuter Interaction (or H.C.I.) classes teach techniques and qualities of intuitive, functional Interface design, as well as prototyping and usability skills. Prdouct Design classes concentrated on the design process itself. I developed product concepts through research, user understanding, and early iterative prototyping. Through digital art and narrative classes, as well as Computer Science graphics motion studies, I developed a strong background and understanding of both 2-D and 3-D.animation My other work includes favorite projects from Studio Design class with Matt Kahn, in addition to print work.
