Coolaboratory is the independent practice of Andrew G Milmoe. He works in user experience design, physical AI, and frontier AI model training, and he supports the maker community.
He started Coolaboratory in the Oakland Bay Area, doing information architecture and user experience design for global brands by way of local digital agencies.
That same discipline carried him to Chicago, into user experience design and physical AI for hardware startups. He designs industrial IoT for high-stakes physical environments, built for the people running the machines as much as the ones reading the numbers in the boardroom. He turns heavy operational data into something a frontline worker can actually use.









A Bay Area maker community, founded by Andrew in November 2007. Over the next decade it grew to 3,000 active members and produced more than 200 workshops. Participants had the opportunity to build their skills, exchange ideas, collaborate on future projects, and show off the results. He moved on in May 2018.
