Brad looking at a design pattern chart
Hi there. I’m Brad Lauster.
This is my personal blog. I’ve been writing here intermittently, since 2000, on the things that catch my attention.
A little about my background:
I have over 12 years of experience in the software industry. Most of my work has been in interaction design and user research, though Iʼve also held roles in programming, communications and teaching. For most of 2008, I worked as the lead designer for LinkedInʼs Address Book. Prior to that, I led the User Experience practice for Stanford University’s IT Department. Iʼve designed desktop and web applications, organizations, communications plans, user generated content sites and social web services.
I recently moved from San Francisco to Santa Barbara, California and started a new job at AppFolio. I’m still getting settled, but things are going really well.
If you’d like to say hi, just email me at hello@bradlauster.com.
