About Edwin Choate
I'm a senior user experience (UX) designer at TaxSlayer and I'm based out of Atlanta, GA. I'm especially interested in usability, UX architecture, interaction design, semantic HTML, and accessibility. I'm an active member of Interaction Design Association (IxDA) Atlanta and Interaction Design Foundation (IxDF) Atlanta. In my spare time I enjoy reading, folk music, retro video games, and playing my acoustic guitar.
