Keith has been working on the web, in some form or another, for over 13 years. He started his career with Microsoft and quickly moved to a three-year stint at Boeing, where he worked as a designer and developer for some of their highest profile projects.
He left Boeing to pursue the dot-com boom and jumped ship just before the dot-com bust to head back to work for Boeing on the Connexion project. After that, he spent a few good years at Children’s Hospital Seattle (where he met Brian), had a two-year gig as Editor-in-Chief for Digital Web Magazine (where he met Nick), and gave the agency world a shot. Along the way, he has met some great people and worked on some amazing projects.
Keith is a recognized expert on web design, information architecture, and web publishing; he is a frequent speaker and writer on those subjects. In addition to the terrific companies above, he’s worked with AAA, Adobe, Connexion by Boeing, Real Networks, and Sony.
Keith’s primary role is to lead in the development of the interaction and visual design phases.
