In 2016, I worked with the lead authors to publish the book *Sprint*, which is a cookbook for running a design process.

I drew the original marker board sketch of the logo, which Stephen Desroches and Jon Hicks crafted into the beautiful logo that we all know and love.

As Jon Hicks described [on his blog](https://hicks.design/journal/firefox-logo):\
\
*Shortly before Christmas, I had an email from a chap called Steven Garrity, who works for [Silverorange](http://www.silverorange.com/), and runs a blog called [‘Acts of Volition’](http://www.actsofvolition.com/), in which he publishes a [radio show](http://www.actsofvolition.com/archives/2004/february/actsofvolition) on regular basis. (really worth a listen BTW). He asked if I would like to join a recently created Mozilla branding team, with the immediate aim of producing a new logo identity for the Firebird browser, soon to be renamed firefox (Ben Goodger has written up the [reasons and process for the name change](http://www.bengoodger.com/weblog/archives/week_2004_02_08.shtml#000549)). The branding team came into being after Steven wrote an [article recommending changes to Mozilla’s existing branding](http://actsofvolition.com/steven/mozillabranding/). I jumped at the chance, and today Firefox 0.8 is finally released, and the work is no longer confidential.*

*Over Christmas (thanks Steven!) ideas and concepts were put forward. The timescales were tight (the design would chosen 2nd January), and the concept difficult to illustrate. A firefox is actually a cute red panda, but it didn’t really conjure up the right imagery. The only concept I had done that I felt happy with was this, inspired by seeing a Japanese brush painting of a fox:*

*The final chosen design was a concept from [Daniel Burka](http://deltatangobravo.com/authors/dburka) and sketched by [Stephen Desroches](http://newrecruit.org/authors/stephen), which I then rendered using Fireworks MX. I’ve been using Fireworks over Illustrator or Photoshop for icon design as I love the way I can work in vectors and see the result in pixels, rather than smooth vectors. The updated gradient tools in MX make this possible too.*

IxDA "Interaction Awards" Best in Show

Kevin, Caleb, and I created Zero as a side project back in 2016. Kevin got really into the science of intermittent or circadian rhythm fasting and we decided to build a simple application to support people who were trying to fast.

In 2007-2008, Leah Culver, Kevin Rose, and I started a social network called Pownce. I was the head of all things design. We sold Pownce to Six Apart in 2008.
