"My role is to find strategic insights as to where design can have the most business impact. A designer can bring a viewpoint of not just aesthetics, but economics and usage.” -- John Maeda
I am inspired by John Maeda, who infuses corporate strategy with design, helping to build Design DNA into company cultures. He is the first design partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers (KPCB), a venture capital firm in Menlo Park, Silicon Valley, California specializing in digital, green tech and life sciences startups. He also chairs eBay Inc.’s Design Advisory Board. John Maeda is the author of The Laws of Simplicity, an excellent book about balancing simplicity and complexity through business, design, and technology. I am also a member of The Museum of Craft and Design (MCD) - San Francisco and The Tech Museum of Innovation - Silicon Valley-San Jose.
