I'm not a Design major, but I would like to work with both designers and programmers, using my Cognitive Science and Human-Computer Interaction backgrounds to build better interfaces.
This is a select sampling of some of the design work I have done. I'm particularly interested in Interaction Design, Interface Design, and a little bit of Visual Design.
Quite a few of these were designed for print and thus are somewhat poorly represented by the screen JPEGs/PNGs I'm giving you.

Indie Music Store |
A design for an independent artist version of iTunes Music Store. We had to figure out the target audience, creating personae, scenarios, task analyses, site maps, wireframes, and eventually a visual treatment of the front page. |
Advanced Visual Interface & Interaction Design

Digital with a Taste of Physical—Time Ink |
An exercise in designing rich physical interactions with a digital object. We created mood boards, then taxonomies of physical objects, and finally created a hybrid physical/digital object for scheduling. |
