A moment with Lee Williams

Hi, it’s me Lee. My background is in graphics design and before coming to Parsons I worked in the magazine publishing industry. I worked for Time Inc. in the custom pub department and then landed a Associate Art Director gig at Runner’s World magazine. You can check out my previous work at leewilliams.me. That was all fine and good, but everyone knows print is dead. So, here I am now.

I have never really coded anything except some flash script before coming to Parsons, but I’ve really fallen for it since getting my hands dirty in bootcamp. I’ve tried to squeeze in as many code courses as possible and am focusing on ubiquitous mobile computing. I really want to create interesting applications that can extend beyond the screen. There’s really no reason why our powerful little computers in our pocket can’t communicate with all the digital stuff we surround ourselves with. I’m also interested in algorithmic logic and life simulations. I believe menu based, yes no sort of interfaces need to evolve to be more predictive of their users intentions and to assist users in finding what they really want. What my focus will be when I come out with this MFA I have no clue, but for now I’m trying to soak up as much new knowledge as possible.
