		<title>Experience Design</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As a design professional, I provide solid expertise in a broad-reaching competency defined as Experience Design.

		<title>When Policy Kills the Customer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Often, businesses and entities put policies in place as preventive measures&#8230; usually because they&#8217;ve been burned before, either by personal negligence or customer/client abuse.

		<title>Never Give Up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Success is not an elusive, intangible thing. It is something you can have if you don&#8217;t give up&#8230; no matter what the goal is. I read a quote by Ross Perot today that was, to me, profound&#8230; even if it is common sense: Most people give up just when they’re about to achieve success. They [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Short Post.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A quote often attributed to Mark Twain states, &#8220;sorry about the long letter, I didn’t have time to write a short one&#8221;. Two things are implied here in Mark&#8217;s quote: 1) an apology for taking up more of someone’s time than he would have preferred, and 2) brief and succinct communication, while more difficult to [...]]]></description>
