Case Study:
Desktop Application for a Mobile Device
By using design principles, gaining team and then client consensus I was able to save a project from being a collection of half working features to a simple app that did what you expected it to do.

Jack is by far one of the best thinkers in the business. We started on the same day at Razorfish and during my two years there I collaborated with Jack almost monthly on a brand new idea or concept he had. He has a knack for thinking outside of the box and seeing new and interesting uses for emerging technologies. 
We worked together on projects involving Microsoft Surface, Arduino (embedded computers), iPhone, Mobile Web, SMS, and Advanced Flash development. 
When he has had to step into the "real" world of web development, his concepts were always grounded in excellent user experience. He didn't try to reinvent the wheel for every project, but he always brought something new to the table. 
As a developer, working with Jack was a pleasure. Not only was he able to communicate the concepts well, but when needed, he was able to build actual prototypes using code. That simplified the development process significantly and ensure a final product as close to the original vision as possible. 
I would highly recommend Jack for any position where thought leadership is paramount.
