About

A littleaboutme.

I’m a product designer and design engineer. I like the part of the work where the problem is still messy, the part where the interface starts to make sense, and the part where it actually gets built.

Ask me anything

The short answers.

What kind of problems do you like?

Placeholder answer. Talk about the shape of the work you want more of — complex flows, unclear problems, teams that need a design partner who can also ship.

How do you work with engineers?

Placeholder answer. Describe your handoff, your prototyping habits, and how early you get into code.

What are you looking for next?

Placeholder answer. A senior product design or design engineering role, a specific kind of team, or a project you want to take on.

What do you do outside work?

Placeholder answer. A sentence of texture — side projects, music, sport, whatever makes the page feel like a person.
