I’m an Information Architect, currently working in the User Experience Group at Vanguard around Valley Forge, PA. Previously I’ve done IA-related work for companies like American Express, Sealy, Wachovia, Shaw and Kimberly-Clark.

I’m also a writer; while lately most of my writing has been related to my work, I also manage to scribble (and sometimes even publish) the occasional bit of poetry or fiction. I’ve also been writing things and sticking them on the internet since around 1992, but didn’t have a proper ‘blog’ until around 2000. (Earlier incarnation was called Drewspace).

I’ve been designing information systems in one way or another since 1990, and calling myself an “Information Architect” since 1999. I co-founded the Information Architecture Institute in 2002, and take full blame for writing its Manifesto. I’m a big believer in the practice of information architecture.

Atlanta, Georgia is my birthplace, and I’ve spent most of my life below the Mason-Dixon (plus five years in Louisville, Kentucky). I still consider myself a Southerner, but I moved to Pennsylvania in 2004 and now live in the fabulous town of Phoenixville, home of The BlobFest.

About this blog: while I do write about my profession here, this is still a general purpose blog where I write about all kinds of things, including politics and religion. These are my views alone and they don’t represent those of my employer, family, friends or pets. Caveat Emptor!
