      We are a designer and developer with a penchant for creating products. We’ve spent the last 6 months building an emoji-based pictionary bot over SMS, using Node.js and Twilio. Text +1(513)360-4807 to start a game.

      We put together an article describing our design process. https://chatbotsmagazine.com/usability-heuristics-for-bots-7075132d2c92#.uwwrq9gkx

      We’ve worked with large organizations like Bloomberg, GE Healthcare, Venmo, all the way to brand new startups in a variety of industries.

      We’re looking for opportunities to work collaboratively on a project from concept to execution. Design and development, and the intersection.
