Hello! I’m Josh.

I am a design leader and visionary.

I create highly collaborative environments with cross-disciplinary teams to develop, prototype, and test long-term design strategies. I drive innovation by using design strategy and design futures in unexpected ways.

I am currently a Lead Design Strategist and design capability owner at MITRE—a not-for-profit research and development organization. At MITRE, I apply strategic design to systemic challenges.
