My Design Ethos
Design That Fits People
Great products are designed for how people actually live and move through the world, embracing natural behavior as a beautiful constraint. I have learned a ton by observing first-hand how real people use what I've designed.
Design That Feels Right
Nowadays we touch, tap, swipe, and shake our software. These interactions often shape how we feel before we're able to think. I've found that one of the best ways to know if something is designed right is to feel it working in my own hands on a real device.
Design That Ships
With over a decade of full-stack development experience, I'm able to speak the same language as developers. This shared fluency invites engineers along as co-designers, and together we're able to get designs to production quickly and cleanly.
Design That Evolves
New ideas often start out messy. Choosing to show up, learn, and keep working the problem always moves us closer to something better. Great products are built through iteration and persistence.
