About Edwin Choate

I'm a 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 the Interaction Design Association (IxDA) and the Interaction Design Foundation (IDF). In my spare time I enjoy reading, folk music, retro video games, and playing my acoustic guitar.
