Hi, I'm Stephen
Would you like to get to know more about me?
Four quick questions. Zero boring resume reading.
Expanding IR Remote Control
Designing a setup experience so Roku remotes can control soundbars, AV receivers, and projectors — making the Roku remote the only remote users ever need.
Voice Remote Pro — 2nd Edition
A remote with intelligent backlighting that responds to movement, helping users find controls in the dark.
My Flight — Live Tracker
Real-time flight tracking with interactive 2D and 3D maps, destination weather, and points of interest.
My Cabin
Giving G700 passengers complete control over their cabin environment — lighting, temperature, window shades, seat controls, and media — from a single app.
The person behind
the pixels.
My design journey began in 1999 when I watched IDEO reimagine the shopping cart. Seeing a team brainstorm, prototype, and turn ideas into reality set me on a path to do the same.
That passion led me to the Savannah College of Art and Design, where I earned a degree in Industrial Design. SCAD gave me the foundation to think like a designer — curious, strategic, and relentlessly focused on the user.
Twenty years later, I've led cross-functional teams to turn big, messy challenges into meaningful experiences across consumer tech, aerospace, and digital platforms. Along the way, I've led award-winning teams, built design systems, and partnered with engineering, product, and marketing to ship products used by millions.
When I'm not designing, you'll find me playing guitar, exploring the outdoors, or wrangling our three kids. For me, design isn't just a career — it's a way of seeing the world as it could be.
Let's connect.
Whether it's a design challenge, a collaboration opportunity, or just a good conversation about product — I'd love to hear from you.
