Founder

Gianna-who?
I lead a team working on design tools at InVision. I founded and built Macaw, which was acquired by InVision in 2015. I also worked at nclud designing products for Apple and Oracle. In 2012, I went to Twitter by way of an acquihire. I left shortly after to help MIT design and launch edX.
I also speak, teach and write about design. I live with my beautiful wife and three kids outside DC. I design to support my obsession with mechanical watches.

The super hot web
design tool of the future.

Macaw

In 2012, I founded Macaw to create the design tools missing in our industry. We were nominated for .net Magazine's Gamechanger of the Year in 2014 and App of the Year in 2015, were featured in high profile publications and ran a successful Kickstarter campaign, which was named one of the most exciting projects of the year by Mashable and CNN. Peachpit even published a book on it.

Speaking

I've spoken around the world at numerous conferences and events including SXSW, Smashing Conference, Awwwards Conference, Future of Web Design, WebExpo, and Layers. Here are a couple of recent talks.
