Josh is a photographer, interaction designer and the co-founder and Editor in Chief of Cool Hunting, a thirteen year old digital publication highlighting creativity and innovation in design, technology, style, culture, food and travel. A serial entrepreneur in digital media with more than twenty years of experience.

Josh parlayed his loves of aesthetics and technology to a focus on interaction design and user experience, first at Hampshire College, then at NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program, where his 1999 graduate thesis focused on modular, scalable, touch-screen interfaces. He interned at IDEO before taking a full-time job at Razorfish, where he ultimately became Design Director for Wireless and Mobile. He toyed with being a corporate American at Motorola and helped build a user interface design team there between 2001-2003 before running product development at Upoc, a Twitter-like startup ahead of its time. Josh left Upoc in 2005 to found Bond Art + Science with several of his former colleagues from Razorfish.

In 2003, Josh started Cool Hunting as a side project, and in 2005, decided to turn it in to a business with his husband Evan Orensten. What began as a catalogue of inspiration and well-executed ideas has grown into a Webby Award‑winning online publication with a global team of editors and contributors sifting through innovations in design, technology, art, and culture every day. Josh is also responsible for the design of coolhunting.com and the company’s custom publishing platform as well as distribution through social media and content partnerships.

Josh also consults on content and design for select clients that have included Apple, Nike, BMW, Credit Suisse and Google.
