About

My name is Derek Little - a designer and developer with over 20 years experience working in the interactive space, specializing in crafting innovative and impactful digital products, ranging from websites and games to social media applications and experiential campaigns. I’ve worked with major brands like HBO, Disney, Under Armour, Kellogg’s, and Deloitte, helping them leverage the latest technologies to engage with audiences in new and meaningful ways.

Through my interactive design studio, SuperComputingMachine, I help startups build and grow digital products and partner with agencies to expand their capabilities, strengthen their teams, and deliver exceptional digital experiences.

I am particularly interested in the constantly evolving ways users interact with digital media, and am always exploring how emerging technologies can create more meaningful connections between people, brands, and ideas.
