Hi, I'm Dylan Smith.

I'm a design & research leader who's ready to lead your team on Day 1.

With 7+ years of managing projects, I enjoy collaborating on dynamic, cross-discipline teams to successfully deliver human-centered systems that are sustainable long-term 🌌 I've worked in numerous industries -- including one of my passions -- healthcare 🏥 and love to help aspiring designers on their education and pursuit of knowledge. 📚

A little about me...

I'm an LA native who's living and working in Pittsburgh with my wife and puppy. In my free time, I enjoy making art, baking, running, and rooting for the Dodgers.

In my previous life, I was an scientist and artist! Entering the design and research sphere satisfied my need to balance my love of being analytical with my desire to be creative, all wrapped up in caring about people.

I hope to use my many years of understanding technological needs, business knowledge, and interest in the human experience to create success for everyday people and communities.
