Hello, I'm Tony Owen Peterson (TOP), an experience designer from the innovation-fueled city of Seattle. My innate passion for creativity has shaped my journey into the world of UX design. As a husband and devoted father of three, my weekdays and weekends are dedicated to moments filled with cuddles, storytelling, and occasional drywall repairs.

Over the past decade, I've been a dedicated member of the Microsoft family, where I've assumed multiple roles, including Lead UX Designer, Frontend Developer, and Prototyper. While a substantial portion of my portfolio reflects my impactful contributions at Microsoft, I'm a versatile designer with experiences that span executive leadership, freelance work, agency collaborations, educational endeavors, and grassroots projects. However, my heart truly thrives when I'm an integral part of a dynamic creative team, actively contributing to the ideation and execution of innovative solutions. I've had the privilege of both leading and collaborating with talented creatives, but I derive immense satisfaction from the hands-on creative process.

My fascination with technology keeps me constantly attuned to the latest design and web trends, even in my free time. Beyond my UX design career, I channel my creative energies into diverse interests, such as indie video game development, playing the piano, crafting delightful culinary creations, and enjoying board games with likeminded nerds.
