Thank you for visiting Charmful!

At Charmful, we focus on how the world can be more intuitive, fun and interactive. We have three active projects: STACK & the Grumblepuff from Above: play as STACK and fine the source of the grumbles. Words In: use your deduction skills to learn a language. PROTO & the Robotic World: program your trusty robot and stop the gnomes.

We're interested in improving systems by making them as engaging and as intuitive as possible, particularly in affordance (visual clues on how to do something – show, not tell) and its application to education. We use technology in new and unique ways and apply visual concepts to everything I do.
