SHORT SUMMARY

Since 1997, before Steve Jobs created the UX title in 2006, I was inspired by Disney's Michael Eisner to develop tools and methodologies that are still in use today. I'm particularly proud of the over 128 apps and 400 hundred websites I've helped create. My experience in design systems, user research, and app design would make me a great addition to any team.

Since 2019, I have been responsible for leading award-winning information distribution, SMB growth apps for Kraft-Heinz headquarters in Chicago. Lately, I have worked cross-functionally with product and development teams to integrate new customer support portals for Amazon and travel the world as an independent UX Maturity Consultant for Google. I am eager to apply my expertise to help build UX Maturity within your enterprise.

I was recently elected top UX Maturity author by TED TALK Fulton. I've currently completed a new book for Simon & Schuster, "THERE'S NO I IN UX: Top 10 Methodologies for UX Crossfuctional Work Flow" - expected 2/1/23.

FUN FACTS:

For the past 16 years, I've helped illustrate game characters like "GOD OF WAR" for Santa Monica Studio (see CHARACTERS on the website). New York Art Magazine said, as a photorealistic illustrator and UI Designer... "Dolph is Good, really...really good!" After that article, I was sought after by SONY & The Famous Group to work on the UX & UI of PlayStation directly interfacing with new CEO Kenichiro Yoshida

I am excited to help enhance your team's already excellent work and provide your company TOP-QUALITY UX KNOW-HOW!
