Biography
I’m a designer, helping startups and large orgs solve complex challenges through design decisions. I think like a builder, not just a designer. I understand how things are made, I can code, and I usually prototype/vibe-code ideas when I want to explore something quickly or test if it actually works in real life.

Obsessed of making products feel clear, simple, and easy to use — the kind of design that feels good the moment you interact with it, not just the moment you see it.
