About

This site is – or will be, I suppose, since I’ve had very little time to update it in the past – a collection of creative thinking, writing, and observations on the intersection of design, technology, business, and people. Really, it is more so a place for me to ramble on about things that interest me.

Some History

In September 1994, instead of writing the Philosophy paper on The Odyssey like I should have been doing, I created and published my first website.  It had a tiled background. Soon after, I was using my newly acquired HTML and Javascript skills for Loci (pronounced Lo-kai), an online collegiate web publication backed by both a VC firm and the BU College of Communication. Loci was a site where students could publish articles on particular subjects – sex, culture, classwork. The posts were ordered by date.

No one ever called Loci a blog.

Loci was eventually bought by Student Advantage.

Site Interactive

Bryan and several former Lociers band together to form Site Interactive, designing and building websites for a variety of companies and corporations such as Editorial Humor (a satirical cartoon magazine) and WHDH TV Channel 7 in Boston. Site Interactive focused on creating intuitive and simple user experiences for websites, including content management systems and rich media. This was in 1996.

Work

Since Site Interactive, I’ve worked in a variety of capacities in the digital space: As a consultant, a developer, an interaction designer,  an information architect, and a digital strategist. The key them element throughout my career is the complete dedication to user-centered design and along with a yearning to discover – the new, the misunderstood, or the obvious.

Currently

I work as a consultant in the field of user experience design and information architecture at Molecular, an Isobar company. I can also be found ruminating on food and wine.
