Designing trustworthy mission-critical systems

I started at WCPX-TV (CBS) in Orlando, wrangling on-air graphics during hurricanes when clarity on screen was a lifeline. Since then, I’ve chased that same clarity through complex products in games, live services, and emerging tech. I’ve worked with cross-functional teams to shape UX and design systems for products used by millions of people. Today I’m a Product Designer & Creative Technologist who turns messy ambitions into accessible, buildable products.

Nicholas Konkle

Game Director, Riot Games

I would certainly recommend Gary as a UX designer who can tell a team what they need to do to build the foundation, and then follow that team through the entire building process. He's also brings a very unique style to team-dynamics that is both entertaining and valuable, and was often a big driver of attention to detail for an entire team.

Paul Sage

CEO, Ruckus Games

I personally feel Elder Scrolls Online is the best MMO on the market for a console largely due to how well the game handles user input. Gary was key to that effort.

Gary is a total pro and an extremely talented designer. He brings deep experience and a passion for strong design to every project he's involved with. He is extremely well-versed in overall branding, creative strategies and in the technology it takes to execute those designs in all aspects of any production process. I look forward to the day when we'll be back on the same team working together. I recommend him completely.

I have worked with Gary twice now, both at Real U in Singapore and at ZeniMax Online Studios (ZOS) in Maryland. Because of how incredibly good he was at Real U while working on Otherland, I recruited him to come to ZOS and help work on the Elder Scrolls Online.
