Scott Thomas (aka SimpleScott)
From products to websites, Scott works to simplify the experience of use through design. In 2007, Scott was invited to join the New Media team at Obama for America. The chance encounter led to Scott becoming Design Director of the historic Obama Presidential campaign. He is currently writing a book that explains how an obscure senator rose to the highest office in the land and celebrity status with the aid of branding and design. Scott plans to continue designing for social causes that might just someday change the world.
