And you are ...
Michelle: programmer, user researcher, UX designer. Hybrid.
I enjoy exploring new technologies and modes of interaction, and have spent the last 8 years or so (4 in web, 4 in games) focusing on how to make software more approachable.
Generally, I work on interfaces and tools, and I have a soft spot for projects where our tech is open to many. I like seeing people interact with systems which are meant to be inclusive and unintimidating.
I double-majored in Computer Science and English Literature at UBC and graduated in 2007. Some people say the two are are a weird combination, but I will never be tired of the surprising and useful ideas that come up when they overlap. I really believe that mixing experiences together in new ways is where some of the best work is found.
Other stuff I love: making things, typography, data visualization, ice hockey, video & table-top games, reading, ramen, PvP, tea, adventure, the ocean, kittens, and bicycles.
Currently, I am working with some really great people on a console title.
