About Me

I am obsessed with usability and a fan of clean, simple design. With a keen eye for detail, I approach each project with a creative, marketing-based mindset. I've been laying down code since seventh grade so I've basically grown up building websites. Studying at Johnson & Wales, I was able to learn the fundamentals of design and how to effectively apply it to web development.

Providence Geeks

Lullabot — arguably the world’s top Drupal consultancy — is one of the Providence tech scene’s best kept secrets. From their headquarters in the Jewelry District, Lullabot has become an internationally distributed team of 36 and growing (fast).

Not content with that, Lullabot is now expanding into “product.” Built originally for Drupalize.me – their online school for learning Drupal & JQuery – Videola is an  enterprise-strength video management & delivery platform. Think build-your-own Netflix-style streaming video web site.

At the February Geek Dinner this coming Wednesday, Lullabot/Videola CEO (and former Orbit frontman) Jeff Robbins (@jjeff) will tell the Lullabot story, give a Videola demonstration, and share the vision for where Lullabot is headed next.

Business Innovation Factory

Each year BIF hosts a national gathering of amazing people from all walks of life to share their personal story. Now in its sixth year, the BIF Collaborative Innovation Summit is much more a conversation than a conference. Over two days, more than two dozen people will take the stage and replace canned presentations with something personal. There are absolutely no panels or talking heads, no infomercials or powerpoints, just very personal stories from people who combine passion, creativity, smarts and discipline to get things done in new and valuable ways.

Stop by Open Cofee this Tuesday for great coffee and even better tech talk!
One of the most clever mobile apps I've came across is called Trapster. It allows users to post frequent police speed trap locations and tag intersections that have those pesky red light cameras. Another great feature is that it follows your route using the phone's GPS then alerts you as you approach a hot spot. Check it out http://www.trapster.com.

This seems like a great event that John Maeda puts on. Maybe a little early in the AM but nonetheless a great opportunity. Like Michelle said, hopefully the RI Nexus bloggers who go will keep us up to date on the topics discussed during the jog. The next two upcoming runs are going to be on July 8 and July 15
