How I work
From Idea to Execution.
- 01
Explore the possibilities
I begin by asking questions, gathering references, and understanding the people, goals, and constraints behind the project. This creates space to consider different directions before committing to one.
- 02
Find the direction
I organize what I’ve learned into a clear creative approach. Rough sketches, visual studies, user flows, and early concepts help define how the experience should look, feel, and behave.
- 03
Ideas become prototypes
interfaces, motion studies, or working builds. Creating something people can see and interact with makes it easier to test assumptions, gather feedback, and implement better solutions.
- 04
Refine the experience
I bring the strongest ideas together and focus on the details—clarity, responsiveness, accessibility, motion, and visual polish. Design and development continue informing each other until the experience feels considered and complete.
About me
I design digital experiences—but my strongest skill is working with people.
My path into tech has not been limited to classrooms and computer screens. I’ve worked in restaurants, at a remote fishing lodge, and abroad in New Zealand—experiences that taught me how to communicate clearly, adapt quickly, stay composed under pressure, and contribute to a team.
That background now shapes how I approach design and development. I bring together visual design, user experience, and computer science, but I also understand that strong products are rarely created by technical ability alone. They depend on listening well, solving problems collaboratively, taking ownership, and keeping people aligned. I’m drawn to roles where creativity, technology, and teamwork intersect. I can organize a user journey, create a polished interface, build interactive experiences, and help move a project from an early idea to a clear and functional result.
01
Creative Versatility
Moving comfortably between visual design, UX, development, motion, 3D, and interactive technology to find the right approach for each project.
02
Human Insight
Understanding people, communicating clearly, and creating positive working relationships through experience in technology, hospitality, travel, and team-based environments.
03
Project Ownership
Taking initiative, navigating unfamiliar problems, and helping ideas move from early exploration to a polished and functional result.
