I'm Bobby G. Bray Jr., I first attended Herron School of Art and Design studying visual communications, then went on to receive my B.S. in graphic design from The Art Institute of Indianapolis with an emphasis on branding, advertising, print, and web design.

I've since worked & partnered with a lot of amazing technology companies, ultimately expanding my craft into creative/art direction and software product design. I have experience designing across platforms (web, tablet, phone, iOS, Android, emerging technologies) and mediums, with a focus on brand and product design.

As an Experience Designer, I strive to make emotionally engaging experiences with a user-centered approach. My goal is to touch people by creating interactions and flows that are simple, solve a big human need, and that work flawlessly. Design has so many moving parts and the experience portion of the work is the most difficult, it requires a GREAT understanding of how development works and the specific environment you're working in. It requires an extensive understanding of interaction models, behavioral science and visual language constraints. Way beyond just the physical pixels... (but I really enjoy those too)!

In a Creative Director position, I must play a role with each of the team members involved in the product and brand processes, all while building empathy for users and marrying what they actually need with what the business wants to get in return. Tying everything together, and making process improvements where needed.

As a trained Innovation Catalyst from Intuit, I also coach leaders and teams across entire organizations using design for delight techniques, approaches and rational, in order to build and maintain the culture that fosters engagement and encourages innovation – a culture where emotionally engaging products that people love can be created. Evoking positive emotion by going beyond customer expectations in delivering ease and benefit throughout the customer journey.
