Grosvenor's background is in cross-platform systems integration, interface design, and interaction and architecture design. Demand from users for a customized, interactive experience led him to develop and create many timesaving and creative commands and behaviors for Dreamweaver, vastly reducing deployment time for corporate sites and increasing their portability and scalability. His drive to increase team productivity led him to develop extensibility add-ons for other products in the Macromedia web suite including Dreamweaver MX, Fireworks MX, and Flash MX. One of the new breeds of commands for Fireworks MX, "Twist and Fade 3.0," created by Grosvenor, had the accolade of shipping with Fireworks MX.
