About

I'm Cory. I'm from Orange County, CA but live on the road across the U.S. in my RV. (Follow my adventures at summerwithyou.com!) I'm an experience designer and focus primarily on the web and building interfaces, but also produce several large music festivals every year across the western US.

As a design generalist, I enjoy owning the entire product design stack from concept to completion:

1. Product ideation and roadmap planning
2. Wireframing (Balsamiq)
3. Copywriting
4. User validation and testing
5. Product design (Figma or Sketch)
6. Prototyping (Figma or Invision)
7. Building out the front end (rails + haml + sass, scss, less, light jQuery)

Additionally, I have experience in producing web videos, tutorials, and product walk-throughs.

Currently...
I'm a Lead Designer at PostHog. When I have time, I'm also building RV Envy. I also manage Posthaven and FolioHD.

Previously...
Co-founder at Brightback (acquired by Chargebee in 2020)
First designer at Heap
Co-founder at Preact (acquired by Spotify in 2016)

In the past, I've done quite a bit of consulting in the automotive space for companies like Kelley Blue Book and Carvana. I also designed and built most of themes available for the blogging platform Posterous. (Posterous was acquired by Twitter in 2012.)
