About Me

Hi, I'm Jack Towery! A Human-Computer Interaction master's student and a Product & User Experience Designer from Atlanta, GA with over 8 years of design, development, and research experience.

I believe in user-centered, accessible design that prevents discrimination, removes barriers to information, and protects everyone's rights to be a citizen of our digital society. My love for creative problem solving and my passion for servant leadership has afforded me the opportunity to design & research for non-profit organizations, startups, and premiere research universities, and I am always looking for new opportunities to learn.
