Hi, I’m Glenn, a UI Designer for Salesforce.com in San Francisco, California.
You can find me around the internet on Behance, Google+, and LinkedIn. Thanks for visiting my portfolio.
The Ideas Community is a place where Salesforce users can come and give their suggestions for features, usability flows, functionality... basically anything they want. Sometimes when an idea resonates, or when there's a lot of popularity surrounding a users idea, it'll become included in a Salesforce release. If you go there now, you'll see a lot that's been created, and many similar ideas rolled into one.

"Glenn's designs always reflect his commitment to consistency and simplicity. He is also capable of creating designs even when the information available is limited."
—Dilip Chetan, Senior Researcher, Salesforce.com
We think a lot about how a user will interact with our software. What may seem like an obvious solution definitely isn't always that. Slugging it out in meetings, working heads down, or doing thorough user testing helps us deliver the best possible application for our users.

"Glenn was a thought leader in the Help & Training site redesign project, pushing the boundaries of the team's design perspectives while ensuring we delivered within the allotted scope and time."

When I don't have the chance to mark up a design myself, I have engineers on the team that will. And if there's anything that's true in this world, it's that designs somehow morph into slightly uglier cousins of themselves between handoff and delivery. To help that process, I create documents to give to our engineers that'll give them the spec in CSS along with associated interactions.

I was given the charge to first design a smartphone application for my vision of what Zinio could be. Peers loved it, then the vision moved to a tablet design. Soon, Windows8 was in the mix, then the TV as a platform. In this responsive and adaptive layout, we explored how the grid and how multiple content types could fit almost any medium.

It's satisfying to work through user flows. It's like creating an obstacle course with no obstacles. There are often times that things just don't make sense, and it's a cool process to deconstruct and rebuild a flow that makes using and accessing content not only easy, but fun. Whether it's the best way for someone to log-in to your platform, buy a magazine, or publish their own documents, it's always a unique problem with a unique answer.

Early on when the iPhone made its debut, the leadership at NewCity saw great opportunities to help solve problems that many of the folks inside of NewCity faced — using your iPhone offline in remote and beautiful places. We partnered exclusively with various National Parks to offer offline ready, rich and thorough information for everyone needing a little green in their lives.

This piece is something that falls outside of the context of the rest of the site. It wasn't for a client or an employer. Not for money, nor necessarily pro-bono. My sister recently won a fight with breast cancer. She wanted something that she could use for... whatever. Be it a brand in the future, ink on her skin, or just an image to look at on her computer to remind her of situations faced and overcome. Built with crafts, photography and illustration.

Thanks for visiting my portfolio. I'm currently accepting new projects, so if you have a great idea in mind, let's talk. If you have any questions about my process, prices or turnaround time — or if you'd just like to connect & say hi — please send a message. And remember, you can find me on Behance, Google+, and LinkedIn.
