We are pleased to announce that Jadam Kahn has just joined the MyStrands team as Director of User Experience.

Jadam has most recently been running RocketSurgeon - an experience design firm with a focus on digital media – where his clients included Universal Music, Apple Computer, Hitmaker, Steveland Films, Sikora Films, and many others. He also is a thought-leader in the “music 2.0″ space where he analyzes products and trends in the Rocketsurgeon Music 2.0 Blog and Directory.

Prior to running his own firm, Jadam worked as the Manager of User Experience for Music Now which was eventually purchased by AOL. While there he participated in building what was often reviewed as the leading-edge subscription service in terms of user experience and community features as well as doing some work on the Winamp media player.

Jadam studied neurobiology at Cornell University, and received his Masters of Fine Arts degree from The School of The Art Institute of Chicago where he concentrated on visual communication and art and technology.

We are very excited to have Jadam on the team – even if he is all the way out there in Chicago.
