This challanging position required me to balance responsibilites
of in-house print and Web design, marketing and advertising,
public relations, volunteer liason and council archiving. I
designed, edited and produced all major council publications and
event collateral. I played vital roles in major projects, including
redesigning the Web site and key publications to reflect the
contemporary voice of Girl Scouting.
Partnering principally with schools and non-profits, I often worked
to help these organizations establish a consistent voice through
printed collateral. Additionally, I supported many of my clients in
establishing their first presence on the Internet.
The diverse responsibilities of news editor include planning articles,
assigning them to reporters and editing articles for content, style,
grammar and syntax. Other duties included hiring and training
new reporters and planning special coverage and sections.
As art director, I was responsible for the look and feel of the
paper, as well as the daily design of the news, sports, arts and
special sections. In April 1998, I worked with the incoming art
director to redesign the newspaper, resulting in improved clarity
and readability through specialized graphic elements and
stronger style consistency.

what I think
The designer dwells in possibility—between what is and what could be. In treading
this middleground, I try to approach real problems from a fresh perspective. I use
not only words and images but also sound and motion, environments, processes,
ideas, and emotions to craft solutions that are straightforward without being
simplistic. Solutions that make people exclaim, “Of course!” And, at times, solutions
with a little wit. After all, the world is a serious place and we could all use a laugh.

Jared Cole ★ Interaction Design | [email protected]
Experience:
Freelance Designer/Developer ★ CoffeeKids | 1994 - Present
Good design should not be a privilege reserved for those with a large budget. Much
of my contract and full-time design work has been for large corporations with large
budgets. CoffeeKids was created to help those without the budget - good design
should not be out of reach for those that need it most.
Teaching Assistant ★ Carnegie Mellon University | Fall 2006 - Present
My first assistantship was as a TA for Introduction to Interaction Design. In this role
I was primarily responsible for building an archive of student work and providing
support for the prototyping of mobile applications. My second assistantship has me
leading work-sessions for an introductory Communication Design course. In both
courses, it has been the after class discussions that make the experience so enjoyable.
Access Team Leader ★ Simmons College | 2003 - 2006
I lead a small team of designers and developers that had been tasked with raising the
universal accessibility standards for the college’s websites. The team also provided
workshops, resources and suggested best practices for all people using or developing
content for the school’s many websites.
Senior Designer ★ Simmons College | 2003 - 2006
I was initially hired by the Marketing department to help them develop their online
presence. After a few short months, people began to employ not only my design skill,
but also my technological and planning skills. After my first 9 months, they moved
me into a more senior role and hired an assistant. My projects ranged from simple
email marketing to designing dynamic publishing applications.
Interface Designer ★ The Screen House | 2000 - 2002
The Screen House deals with a diverse client base and provides an environment that
promotes employee growth and development. The Screen House allowed me the
opportunity to apply my knowledge of Universal Accessibility to large scale projects
and at the same time gave me with the chance to gain more experience with applied
communication theory, visual design, client relations, production and information
architecture.
Designer/Developer ★ Knowledge House | 1999 - 2000
Knowledge House provides a wide variety of services to its clients and as a result
provided me with a wide variety of project roles. During my time at Knowledge
House I worked on everything from visual design to basic HTML markup and
information architecture.

Design is purposeful intent. Design is strategic. Design is critical thinking, problem solving at
its best. Design is taking apart the whole, learning how the parts work together, then putting
the parts back together to best express the whole. Design is clarity of expression. Design is
leaving no stone unturned. What did you design today? Can I help?

Myself

Philosophy
Strengths
Skills
I am currently a junior in the Industrial
Design program at Carnegie Mellon
University. Growing up in a house
with a full wood and jewelry shop
instilled in me the idea that things
are not “just the way they are”. If
there was something that I wanted or
wanted to make better, I did just that,
I made it. This perspective led me
to industrial Design as an engaging
combination of dynamic problem
solving and creativity.

Experience
When I began to formulate my
universal view of design, I came to the
conclusion that design is a service
industry. The adage, ‘form follows
function,’ continues to define the
purpose of design. Objects that we
as designers create must preform
a service, and it follows that they
must be functional first and beautiful
second. However, this is not an
excuse to create the uninspired.

objective
Growing up around designers, artists and engineers has ingrained in me a desire to better the
human condition through the objects people interact with, even something as simple as an
interface they enjoy using or their favorite pencil. My interests in design lie in the symbiotic
relationship between physical and digital interface and how products fit into larger systems or
services. I also put emphasis on learning and expanding my knowledge of design principles,
experiences and strategies.

profile
Through subtle exposure to a number of
design approaches and philosophies, my
experience at Carnegie Mellon has begun to
shape my outlook on the field of design,
and my place in it. In elective classes such as
Furniture Design and Architectural Robotics, I
have significantly expanded my interests from
the narrow vision of design with which I arrived.
While I have not chosen a specific direction,
it’s the acquisition of different experiences that
has become most important to me. The insights
that I gain from these will help to inform
solutions to future design problems.
