I'm Gus and Emma Jane's full-time mom. I'm also a user interface design consultant, the principal of Emma Jane Consulting. If you've got an interesting ui or usability project that might suit my skills and part-time schedule, I'd love to hear from you. My resume (in pdf format) is available to download. Here are some highlights... Previous Life I designed user interfaces for Netscape from the fall of 96 till the spring of 99. I was involved in the design several different products including:   Compass Server 3.0   Directory Server 3.0   Certificate Server 1.0 In the past few years, I've also worked as user interface designer for Apple Computer working on The Apple Dylan Development Environment, and before that, I was Interleaf's first user interface designer, working on Interleaf 5 for the Mac. Sadly, neither of these great products ever shipped. I graduated from the Department of Architecture at MIT in 1990 with a BS in Architectural Design and a minor in Visual Design.
