The designer behind
The designer behind
the obvious.
I'm the designer who notices the details nobody else flags — and then can't unsee them. That obsession is most of the job.

How I work
I don't hand mockups over a wall.
I take products from blank canvas to shipped across fintech, food, commerce and adult education — prototyping and building front-ends that actually run, sitting close to engineering the whole way. Six years, mostly startups, mostly 0→1.

The job isn't to add — it's to remove everything between a person and what they came to do.A note above my desk
