Shane Church

I moved to Des Moines, Iowa in July 2015 and I am currently working as a Creative Technologist on the UX team at Nationwide Insurance where I am responsible for building interactive prototypes and web frameworks for internal and external customers.

Prior to joining Nationwide, I was the development supervisor for Two Rivers Marketing where I was responsible for leading our internal development team, providing strategic and technical guidance to clients like Bobcat, John Deere, Hertz Equipment Rental, and Danfoss, managing projects with other vendors as well as acting as a lead developer on internal projects. Throughout my career in senior software engineer, systems architect, and technical lead roles, I have developed important mobile and web projects for clients, including ShopAtHome.com, the Department of Energy’s Rocky Flats Environmental Technology Site, Visa, Rambus, National Oilwell Varco, the Department of Labor's Mine Safety and Health Administration, and many more. I had an article on developing hybrid mobile applications published in MSDN Magazine and I also have presented at Denver Startup Week and Experiencing UX - Des Moines.
