/about

Hi, I'm Brent.

I'm a Digital Product Design Leader just as comfortable in Figma as VS Code.

Right now, I'm Director of Digital Product Design at Spanx.

Since 2010, I’ve worked for, with, at, and around tech companies in the NYC area.

I love making digital products and often do it for fun.
