Timing is everything.

Motion is how an interface feels. I help designers use it with purpose, so every move earns its place.

About

Hi, I'm Justin.

I design motion for products used by millions of people. I care about motion that explains, guides and responds, so interfaces feel clear and a little delightful.

Workshops & talks

I also run workshops and speak at conferences about motion in UX. If you're planning a talk, workshop or collaboration, I'd love to hear about it.
