Topurri

android app, 2015

Topurri is a service that allows users to collect, curate, and share lists of media content (ranked or not) that I have worked on along with a few engineers in our spare time.

Skillset

There is no lack of tools and methods available for designers today. As much as I would like to list all that I have learned so far, (oh boy, would that be a boring list…), I’ll refrain. Instead I’m going to say, I’m skilled at selecting, and using, the right tool for any product's envisioned experience.
