Managing Partner
Korey has over 15 years of experience in UX and HF research. With a background in both automotive UX (improving the design of vehicle cockpits and in-vehicle systems) and, over the past 10+ years, a strong focus on medical device human factors, he offers clients cross-industry expertise with a critical understanding of working with regulated spaces. Korey has a passion for making medical devices safer and more effective through the application of HFE/UE, and also for establishing and maintaining an organizational culture that supports the development of expert HF practitioners – both of which are central to the mission of Bold Insight.
During graduate school he applied the principles of human factors engineering to the problem of user authentication, creating a novel graphical authentication mechanism for which he holds a patent. Korey is a contributing author to industry standards, regularly speaks at national and international conferences, and has an MS in Human Factors Psychology from the University of Idaho.
