Hi there. I'm Shannon.
I'm into creative product management and strategic design. By day, I'm Head of Experience Design at VanMoof. By night, you'll find me in my studio, either painting or making faces out of clay. I also wrote The Practical Guide to Experience Design.
Here are some highlights from my most recent adventures:
I'm currently working on masks for Mardi Gras 2023. Progress is steady, though updates might be slow.
After years of designing, learning, and redesigning, we've finally revealed the next generation of e-bikes from VanMoof.
I recently finished Coming to our Senses, a series of five small paintings exploring how we grow closer to the digital realm while increasingly distant from the real world.
I spoke at Shift Mobility about how Design is Shaping the Future of Mobility and on the importance of creating a diverse and inclusive team in Elle is Driving a New Perspective.
The Practical Guide to Experience Design is just waiting for you to order a copy, either from Amazon or from somewhere else.
You may have missed the one-night only show of Future Perfect at Scrapyard, but you can still see the pictures.
Coming to Our Senses
Women wait in their windows, looking out on nothing. Each tries desperately to recreate a specific sensation, something that once was, but now that has vanished in all but a synthesized form.

The Practical Guide to Experience Design
After five years of running a boutique UX consultancy, I gathered our many learnings into a practical guidebook of processes, complete with high-fidelity examples.
Future Perfect
In the past we had gods; now we have technology. Future Perfect combines renaissance stories and compositions with contemporary themes and technology.

Signature Masks for Krewe of Freret
On the first weekend of Mardi Gras, The Krewe of Freret rides handing out hand-decorated masks as their signature throw. I hand-painted 100 of these lovelies to throw from the king float.
