CURIOSITY · CRAFT · COMPUTING
1998 — 2004
A background in music and visual art met an early obsession with computers. By 2004, that curiosity had become a prize-winning graphical environment for MS-DOS.
THE THROUGHLINE
Before the trading platforms, design systems and data infrastructure, there was music, visual art and a home-built MS-DOS interface. Nearly 30 years later, the instinct is unchanged: understand the system, improve the craft, and help the people around it do their best work.
