So who am I?
I'm AJ! I am a User Experience Designer at Epic. Before that, I studied graphic design at Iowa State University. I like problems. I also like solutions. Most of all, I like the challenge getting from one to the other. I see design as the elegant embodiment of that process. That's why I do what I do.

The form matters less to me; it need only match its context. Posters are fun for their simplicity. Iconography is an exercise in abstracting reality. The web—well, the web is the best of all. Its interaction, its ductility, its integration into spaces and lives makes it a great problem—a great problem with even greater solutions.

Welcome to the Skunkworks
This is where I keep, iterate on, and actively develop projects that are not yet ready to be released into the world. It serves as a place I can experiment with ideas and technology, or simply throw up a site as a quick sketch. Feel free to explore the eclectic depths of its archives—some projects may even work!
This is version 2.1, the one that actually works.
