About

I'm a systems thinker who happens to be a designer. I'm most useful when the problem is structural, when the real work is building the foundation that makes everything else possible, not just designing the surface on top of it.

I take my work seriously. I deliver what I say I will, and if something changes I'll tell you before it becomes a problem. I prefer to understand things properly rather than fake it. If I don't know something, I'll ask. If I disagree, I'll say so.

I stay genuinely curious about my tools (Figma, Claude, AI workflows), not because it's part of the job, but because I find it interesting. That curiosity is how the AI workflows in my DS practice got built. Nobody asked me to figure that out. I just wanted to know if it was possible.

I do my best work with clear ownership, space to explore before presenting, and time to do things properly. I clock out when the day is done. I think that's healthy, and I work better for it.
