Keith has been working on the web, in some form or another, for almost 13 years. He started his career with Microsoft and quickly moved to a three-year stint at Boeing, where he worked as a designer and developer for some of Boeing’s highest profile projects.
He left Boeing to pursue the dot-com boom, and jumped ship just before the dot-com bust to head back to work for Boeing on the Connexion project. Since then, he has spent a few good years at Children’s Hospital Seattle, had a two-year gig as Editor-in-Chief for Digital Web Magazine, and gave the agency world a shot. Along the way, he has met some great people and worked on some amazing projects.
Keith is a recognized expert on web design, information architecture, and web publishing and he is a frequent speaker and writer on those subjects. In addition to the terrific companies above, he’s worked with AAA, Adobe, Connexion by Boeing, Real Networks, and Sony.
