Some videos I've starred in for Doist!
A video sharing everything we added or updated in Todoist in September 2023.
A video accompanying the private beta launch of our efforts to improve collaboration in Todoist.
A video I made demonstrating the Boards feature in Todoist.
Below is a list of the educational books I've read in the last couple years that taught me about myself and the world!
It's my personal website, and I'm glad you're here! Please have fun exploring all the little areas of the site; I had a lot of fun creating it. Some things you can do here:
Enjoy! 😘
This is a recording of the presentation Trucy, Jon, and I gave on Figma's v3 Auto Layout feature for the December "Friends of Figma: Chicago" event. I covered the "why" (i.e. the boring parts) of Auto Layout, and tried to explain why it's important for digital designers to understand the nature of the medium they create for and how Auto Layout incorporates those constraints and features into the design tool we're already familiar with.
Then Trucy and Jon talked about the what and how of Auto Layout. Jon's part was especially fun :)
I starred in an interview with Charli Marie TV about how we do marketing design at Doist! My first time being in a Youtuber video! What a fun silly thing to have gotten to do :)
This is a video I created as part of an activity at Doist playing Two Truths and a Lie. Can you tell which one is the lie??
At the beginning of the pandemic Doist did some livestreams where people from our company answered questions about remote work. I did one with Andrew Gobran, the Doist People Ops person, talking about hiring in a remote company. It was fun, and hopefully helpful for some people!
