Howdy, I’m Mark Otto, an interaction designer and strategist currently working at ZURB and living in California.
Originally from Wisconsin, I packed up and moved to California in September 2007 to work with a great design team.
I now live in Sunnyvale with my girlfriend, Nikki.
For more than six years before ZURB, I was a freelance interactive and graphic designer. For roughly a year and a half of that, I (remotely) partnered with Shane Pike at Three:Twenty Interactive to create great websites.
I moved from there to a short stint at the House Buyer Network redesigning real estate sites before making the return to freelance design.
As an interaction designer, I have a strong passion for stunning design in all forms, especially anything you can interact with.
I love using grid-based design, pushing boundaries of CSS, learning new things, and Apple products.
I also enjoy taking photos, reading, writing at the ZURBlog, and cooking.
I stay busy with my work at ZURB, but I also do a fair amount of freelancing. Here’s a list of some recent clients I’ve worked with on my own and with ZURB.
