Hi, my name is Patton and I currently have the awesome job of being part of the company that is a leader in retail for motorcycle riding gear and parts. My role as a product designer has me focused on the digital experiences for Comoto’s suite of brands (RevZilla, Cycle Gear, J&P Cycles and REVER).
My teams mission is customer centric and focuses on understanding the problems before the solutions. We are advocates for the customer and work hard to solve their pain points with the digital shopping experience.

I regularly collaborate across multi-disciplinary teams, conduct various forms of research, create wireframes, comps and prototypes and conduct user testing.
My team is curious and likes to know how things work. We are always on the hunt for what new features we can bring to the customers shopping experience and how we can help grow the motorcycling community!
I previously worked for USAA as a UX/UI designer. I helped design engaging user experiences based on research, strategy and testing to increase the acquisition of their digital products and deliver interactions that empowered the customers to take action in the digital space.
Here is some feedback I received from co-workers while at USAA.
"Patton embodies a calmness which is so reassuring as we navigate the ever-changing variables in the Digital world. He listens to understand, pushes when needed, but still maintains a great dynamic with all stakeholders he works with. Thank you for being a part of Bank Digital's success Patton!"

I first joined USAA in 2013 as a designer and front-end developer. My time was spent designing and developing pages for USAA's digital storefront using HTML/CSS, adhering to brand standards, making sure pages were accessible for users with disabilities and collaborating on the content strategy of the pages.
Earlier in my career, I worked in the music industry for Emmis Communications which owns and operates radio, magazine, and technology entities. While there, my role was heavily based in graphic design and I supported the local Austin radio station websites, newsletters, events, marketing campaigns, concerts and contests. I also had the opportunity to participate in many photo and video shoots.
In 2008, I graduated from Texas State University with a bachelor's degree in Communication Design. This program was primarily focused on print and graphic design type work.
In my spare time I enjoy working on personal design projects where I can flex my creativity, doing leather working and creating my next Ren Fest costume, spending time with my wife, and riding my motorcycles. I like to take long rides on the rolling hills of Texas' back country roads or do the occasional track days. I currently own a 2006 Suzuki SV650, 2007 Suzuki GSX-R600, and a 2007 Honda VTX 1800C.
Below are just a few photos of some of my past experiences with motorcycles.
