About Me:: My GUI design education and career began in 1989 at Apple Computer. In 1992 I founded Rocket Communications, a studio focused exclusively on the design and creation of Graphical User Interfaces for software and applications. I have lived in Honolulu for over five years and commute to San Francisco an average of one week a month to work with my team and our clients. I thrive on working with smart, creative enthusiastic people. When I'm not working I enjoy being outdoors, having fun with my partner and my kids.

She is also a UI person and she speaks fluent Italian :-) Viil started the User Experience group where we have an interesting discussion going regarding the iPhone's use of the drag gesture.

re: Lunch

Sure! We are going to be in Madagascar for part of Feb, but I don't yet have firm dates. I'll follow up on email.

Michal Anne - Has rocket done any work for your old employer on OSX or other high profile apple desktop applications? I realize an NDA may prevent you from commenting.

I was hoping the discussion would lean more toward GUI design principles rather than the development methodology between teams. But it was interesting nonetheless. Aloha, Truman Leung
