Why work with me
Design that starts with the problem, not the pixels.
I get handed ambiguous, half-defined problems and come back with interfaces that are simple to use and easy for engineering to build — not because I guess well, but because I run the research, push back on scope, and stay in the room through implementation.
I care about the details other people skip — empty states, error messages, loading behavior, keyboard navigation — because that's usually where trust in a product is won or lost.

How I work
Structure first. Craft always.
01
Start with the problem
I don't open Figma until I understand what's actually broken, and why it matters to the business — not just the user.
02
Design in the open
Research, critique, and iteration happen with engineering and product in the room, not delivered as a finished surprise.
03
Ship, then sharpen
A shipped v1 that's 90% right beats a perfect mockup that never sees a real user. I'd rather learn from production.

What people say about working with me
