Jeffrey is just your average 29-year-old tattooed metal-head with an eye for design and nose for tomfoolery. The focus of his work as partner and chief creative officer for the Chicago-based, community-business-centric skinnyCorp is design and strategy for their numerous community-based web projects. These projects range in scale from Threadless, a multi-million dollar tee shirt business and ongoing open-call for tee shirt design submissions which sells more than 100,000 tees per month and has over 850,000 registered users, to YayHooray, an invite-only, just-for-fun design and technology community site with only a few thousand members. Jeffrey’s work has been published numerous times, and he’s had the pleasure of speaking all over the world from MIT to the University of Copenhagen to CNN to NPR.
