For more than nine years, I have worked in the user-centered design field designing user experiences for Web 2.0 Applications, Large Corporate Web sites, and e-Commerce Web sites. I have worked as a Visual Designer, Information Architect, Interaction Designer, and Usability Evangelist on projects for companies such as Microsoft, AT&T Wireless, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, General Mills, Zumiez, and Wetpaint. Prior to focusing on Matt Dente Design, I worked in New York City as a Lead Visual Designer and Information Architect at Rare Medium, Inc. (R.I.P.) and as an Information Architect in Seattle for Hornall Anderson Design Works. I received my B.F.A. in Communication Design from the State University of New York at Buffalo in 1998 and also studied Audio Engineering in Seattle, WA.

"Matt is quite simply one of the most talented designers I have ever worked with. What impresses me the most is his versatility. Matt is capable of tackling the most daunting of IA challenges, adept at interaction design, and a fine graphic designer as well. In addition to his stellar design skills Matt is also a delight to work with. His work is always grounded in solid user interface principles and his concepts well thought out. He clearly communicates his thoughts and ideas and collaborates very well throughout the creative process. I highly recommend Matt without reservation. He's an absolute star."

"Matt is simply awesome. He is the first person I call for any web design or development project. Matt helped me design and launch my own site, and I'm about as picky as you can get because I'm in the web design field too. He was a patient, creative collaborator who surprised me with wonderful visual and structural ideas. He quietly takes in all the chaotic and complex ideas you have and comes back with simple, elegant, thoughtful, highly personalized designs. I've never worked with anyone who can 'do it all' like he can. If you want to know more about him, feel free to contact me for a more specific reference."
