I judge for leading games and educational games awards (MagFest, GEE, CODiE, Serious Games). This gives me sharp insight into what makes consumer apps and games succeed.

My strength is leading technical and creative teams to transform complex systems into experiences people love. Career highlights: invented Time.gov at NIST, created SpicyNodes visualization platform (315K creators, 40M users), pioneered semantic wordplay games. After 25 years of architecting systems and leading teams up to 40 people, I also ship production code with AI tools.

Seeking: Head of Product/Design, VP Product, or problems worth solving
